How many of you are using Bookwyrm (federated alternative to Goodreads)?

Jump

  • While the initiative is very well appreciated, I don't like using social platforms for the purpose of reading. I used to have a goodreads account but I deleted it and replaced it with an offline app, openreads, which offers basically everything I need to organize my hobby.

    I just don't need most of what online platforms have to offer.

    • How is Lemmy supposed to replace Reddit?

    Jump

  • it just seems that a lot of people are expecting Lemmy to replace Reddit, when it isn't up to that task and isn't what it's designed for.

    Exactly, and that's totally fine. Unsatisfied users will leave and content ones will remain.

    • Private Spies Hired by the FBI and Corporate Firms Infiltrate Discord, Reddit, WhatsApp

  • Don't put too much hope on apartment buildings. My country is plagued with buildings since it's a passive source of income for wannabe landlords. In the last twenty years the entire coast was cluttered with concrete blocks and the countryside is witnessing a similar trend.

    As long as population is uncontrollably accruing due to artificial economic growth, no solution will be adequate enough.

    While those suburbs you have in America are a nightmare, this poster is too simplistic to give you a full picture of the situation.

    • Why do you think Lemmy hasn't beat reddit yet?

  • donations are not theft lol 😄

  • Hey I know you have "drama" with them but the PrivacyGuides community is solely centered around the concept of technical privacy, non-contextualized, and is agnostic to every other topuc. They've criticized (if not attacked) many FOSS projects but only from the lens of privacy and so I would understand their sometimes odd behavior. That being said, it would be unbiased of you to accuse them with such conspiracy theories.

    On the other hand, I'm perplexed by the fact that they prominently use the spyware crap that Reddit is for communications.

  • Lemmy will never win such a race to the bottom. It should not.

    Perhaps so. We sometimes get blinded by the desire to expand indefinitely, but I'm content with the current activity on lemmy and the slow yet sure growth.

    • Snap actually sucks. This isn't even a meme.

    Jump

  • I'm still researching what OS will be ideal for me when in the close future and it seems until now it's ubuntu (or kubuntu), but I will make sure removing snap is the first thing to do.
