Just made a BookWyrm account:
https://bookwyrm.social/user/zvavybir
I don't know yet how active I will be or if I put all books I read on there, but probably at least some.
I just downloaded more Fedi apps on my GrapheneOS device!

(If you've never heard of BookWyrm, it's like the Fediverse's alternative to Amazon's Goodreads. Here's more info about it: https://fedi.tips/bookwyrm-a-social-network-for-people-who-enjoy-reading)
So, if anyone can recommend an instance, let me know!

AGPL3(NeoDB!) vs facepalm(BookWyrm=facepalm)
BookWyrm is NOT open source.
Use NeoDB(but don't forget to read the source code!)
Let's collab on etherpad to analyze it together. Let's learn together!
NeoDB is AGPL3.
BookWyrm got some "Anti Capitalist" whatever license. It's custom made and NOT compatible with FLOSS.
Is there a Canadian Bookwyrm instance?

Today's quote from a book (that you have *got* to read btw): "The only thing that could make an old-fashioned liberal like me light up faster than the letters 'WPA' is the phrase 'Jimmy Carter's cardigan.'

Hello all, I am adding the recommendations from this thread among others to this list
"Autism doesn't 'Go Away' when you 'Grow Up'": Adult Autism Literature
https://bookwyrm.social/list/3969/s/autism-doesnt-go-away-when-you-grow-up-adult-autism-literature
Any booklovers know when Dresden Files #18 or Patricia Briggs next Alpha and Omega will be published? No info for long time, sigh.
Hey y'all, I'm looking for recs on books:
- fiction or non fiction
- center adults older than 18 (no YA) with autism (not just as a side note background character), bonus if it is about late-in-life diagnosis but fine if not.
- It is okay if the character isn't explicitly stated as autistic, so long as the consensus from readers who are neurodivergent is that the character is coded as neurodivergent with autism specific traits, and that the author identifies as neurodivergent
- doesn't sensationalize achievements "in spite of disability"
- preferably an author that is trans and/or BIPOC (and not a white person writing about POC, it's fine if they speak about their own lived experience)
- not overly centered on spicy romance (okay if this is a sub plot)
- preferably has an audiobook production
Yes i am looking through existing recs on bookwyrm but some of them don't have a lot of details in the reviews

I feel inspired to write posts today Well i just made the switch from Goodreads to #BookWyrm, and I'm loving the privacy and community vibe! No ads, no data harvesting, just books and readers. Also been using #Trakt for tracking movies and shows—super clean and syncs perfectly with my watchlist. Anyone else on these platforms? What’s your setup for tracking books and media?
#Fediverse #Books #Movies
Can any avid readers recommend me a good #Bookwyrm instance to join? I want some motivation to start regularly reading again, and to track what I read.
Dimanche dernier, nous enfilâmes k-wai et frusques pour sortir prendre l’air. Crachin, puis pluie légère nous accompagnèrent tout de long pour cette courte promenade dominicale.
Lundi. Petit matin pluvieux. Je ne renonce pas et enfourche mon vélo. Je remarque à quel point les verts sont nombreux, selon les essences d’arbres, et le temps maussade semble leurs donner plus de force […]
@ely_peddler Same, I read it online and then purchased myself a copy to add to my collection of anarchist media:

When you find yourself signing up for more and more federated and ActivityPub services online, that’s when you know you’re on the right side of the internet. The best side.

I recently signed up for BookWyrm to track my reading. Are there any similar federated platforms for tracking movies and TV shows, including playtime and watch history?
