    I was part of a group that left Goodreads when they sold us out to Amazon and Amazon started censoring reviews they didn’t like. We set up a community on Google Plus to research alternatives to Goodreads and secondarily, to Amazon itself.

    I set up the spreadsheet we used to track our discoveries. It’s WAY out of date, but it’s still there - unlike Google Plus.

    It didn’t exist back then, but BookWyrm would by far have been the best choice. It still needs some improvements, but it’s already outstanding.

    I’m BobQuasit@bookwyrm.social there, by the way.

    I tested Jeju and Bookwyrm yesterday - Bookwyrm is pretty great. I like how the books are part of a federated database.
