Sounds like an interesting tool! But the negative comments on here make me uncertain. Any more positive experiences? I actually recently thought about how Goodreads is not really what I want and I’m a developer. Not that I truly have time to contribute im afraid though .
I really like the app for my personal reading tracking. Been using it for a couple years, and this year (?) there was a huge update that improved it a lot (better UX/UI and statistics if I'm not mistaken).
It's mostly an app that does what it should, but not more, and gets out the way, which is awesome.
This project was actually my exit way from Goodreads. Unlike another commenter, I found virtually no issue with searching for books in European languages. All the statistics which GR offers are available, and you can easily import your books to the app. And of course, no ads, zero trackers and open source.
The only caveat is the social aspect, since this is an offline tracker.
Edit: If you have any concerns, hop on the matrix community where the dev is active.
Works well for keeping track of books I've read an yearly reading goals
