Old, but just in case folks don’t know about this…

EDIT: I was stunned at all the upvotes this got, and from a two-year-old article to boot! I hope I didn’t do anything to overload their servers. When I posted about the Instagram/Pixelfed import tool, I was kind of surprised at how many folks that were on Lemmy didn’t already know about Pixelfed, which is why I posted this, also from We Distribute. For a long while, IIRC, the Fediverse pie chart was taken up almost entirely by Mastodon (which it probably still is) followed by a small but visible sliver of Pixelfed–Lemmy hardly registed at all. Just goes to show how fast we’ve grown!

EDIT EDIT: I see that some of you were a little bit disappointed with BookWyrm, but I hope you will stick with them because I think they can be an important member of the Fediverse. The sense that I get is that they’re stretched very thin, and could use some support, monetarily of course, but especially from other developers.

    It’s absolutely absurd that in 2023, the largest tech company in the world cannot find a way to not show me recommendations for books it knows I have already read.

    I also get irrationally enraged anytime Goodreads gets confused about multiple formats of the same book. Oh, I have read the paperback version of The Way of Kings, but surely I need to be recommended the Kindle and leatherbound editions, too, as those are completely different books!
