F**k Amazon

I want to recommend Openreads app as well. FOSS.

This looks good, and I really like the clean look of the app.
I ditched Goodreads about a year ago and am currently using StoryGraph, but I'm interested in a truly FOSS app with no account necessary. It looks as though the .csv export from StoryGraph has different parameters than Openreads and Goodreads, and would need a bit of tinkering to allow the import into Openreads. I see that Openreads explicity allows Goodreads and Bookwyrm import but not StoryGraph.

I don't even know why people use goodreads when the storygraph is so much better.

I heard the social aspect of the storygraph is not very well built out. And maybe not even wanted by the builders?
- You're probably right. I don't use these apps for anything other than tracking my own reading. So I haven't compared the social aspect.
I use goodreads to read reviews since they are plenty and longer. But I give ratings and track my progress only on StoryGraph.

Does anyone have a review or thoughts on all these different trackers? I started switching to StoryGraph but new ones keep popping up and I don't want to have to try them all.

(StoryGraph, bookwyrm, hardcover, open reads, library thing, others)

I love Storygraph. It's so polished, with interesting features. It just needs the ability to merge duplicate books.

What about library thing? I think it's also a good alternative to goodread.

I've been using it for a few years now, and I really like it, but it does take some getting used to.

I'm a simple boy I see Matt Parker, I hit like

Is it ok to mention Z-Library? I use Z-Library and it works great for me.

How is the cataloguing experience?
- Terrible.

In my country there are places you can buy physical books which are printed from pirated copies. You can get them for very cheap. also if you are OK with used copies you can get them for 55% of the price and then they will also buy it back at 45% price.

So, I get why people are recommending alternative ways of getting books (Amazon is in the title), but this post is about GoodReads, which is book tracker, not a book store.

I've never bought a single book from Amazon. When I had a kindle, they offered Darwin's boom for free and I got it, that's about it.
