I created a Mastodon account in 2022 when Musk took over Twitter, but wasn't really active there. When Reddit closed down their API in 2023 I started using Lemmy daily. Now I'm on Mastodon, Lemmy, PieFed, PeerTube, Bookwyrm and more. Love the fediverse!
I just made an account on Bookwyrm last week but I'm kind of confused with it. Is it just basically public reviewing of books you've read/reading?
I'm using it to track what books I've read and to discover new books to read by following others. But you can also create read later lists, write and read reviews, rate books, comment on others reviews or status updates. Also, every time a book isn't available on Bookwyrm I enjoy to enter the metadata and make it available for everyone.
