I did it again.... started another Fediverse service, this time a Bookwyrm instance.

I used Goodreads, but if there's a Federated alternative, why not use that.. So I setup a server and opened registrations.

Enjoy, and please let me know if you find anything that can be improved or changed.

this is pretty cool, but I never understood the appeal of “hey guys im reading this book”

It's more like:

You: Hey guys im reading this book

Random Guy: Hey! I'm currently reading this book as well!

You: Cool! Let me check out what else you like!

And that's how you find your book people and with them a stack of unread but cool books you need to work through.

I'm reading Dune and House of Leaves right now, what books are you reading rn?

Martha Wells. Finished the Murderbot series, wrapping up the Raksura. All very much of the same cloth, but I enjoy it.

Also recently discovered Naomi Novik's Scholomance trilogy, I had only read her Temeraire books before.
