    Bookwyrm if you want something Fediverse.

    Storygraph I think is the other popular one (I’ve not used it)

      I have been using TheStorygraph and I am amazed by the quality of some of the recommendations.

        Also a Storygraph user. And I’ll add in praise for their migration tool that carried over my Goodreads data so I didn’t lose my history nor my to-read list.

      I’ve been using Storygraph for a couple of years now and love it. The only feature it’s missing for me that Goodreads has (although its implementation is awkward anyway) is the ability to add a note to a book you haven’t started yet.

      My workaround for now is a tagging system with friends names like #recommendation #recommendation-amy and if I want some more detailed info, I made a custom shortcut to transform a Storygraph share URL into a note in my book notes folder in Obsidian.
