  • @GreyTechnician Reading the one star reviews and the five star reviews were enough for me

  • @Hyggyldy I think I misunderstood but thank you! I bookmarked all those now!

  • @Hyggyldy @JohnDClay Where is the Brandon Sanderson portion of the sub because that looks like an SF gaming instance, above?

  • @Taztrophe @antonim @EnglishMobster @books Correct! You can follow accounts but not instances or books. I'm not even sure how one would like to even subscribe to a book, like, would you want it to be like a group and get notified every time someone reviews? I actually can make that suggestion in the Github, so we will see! But yes, you follow users on Bookwyrm, not books or instances.

  • @antonim @reversebananimals I'm honestly not sure how Amazon thought GR was gonna make them money? I mean, if I wanna buy a Kindle book/book from Amazon, I never go to Goodreads. I just go there to look up series and books by authors and then just use my libraries to get the books. I knew even back then GR would **never** make Amazon money.

  • @antonim As for me, I use Bookwyrm and my libraries timeline feature in Libby.

  • @renard_roux @foss Do you know if it can output in Shun mamuscript format with a plugin?

  • @rkw_social @MacroCyclo I think so as well, yes. LibreOffice is the most maintained FOS solution to Microsoft Word. Microsoft has a billion times better accessibility support, but then again, big tech is always lightyears ahead of accessibility support, sadly! Still, I hope that tide is shifting.

  • @Jaluvshuskies No, it's an alternative front end. Technically speaking, Mastodon/Hometown/Glitch are the Twitter of the Fediverse. I am on Hometown.

    I updated this post where I list a bunch of books that will encompass my personality. The gyst is getting to know me through these books. They all reveal an aspect of my personality. I am going to add

  • @brand As mentioned, yes. You can import from Goodreads/storygraph. The largest instance has the most books on it, but if you read one particular genre more than others, it would be interesting to join one of the smaller instances to help improve their catalogs

  • Audiobooks @lemmy.ml

    So this is nice! Today I discovered that I can download M4B files from my Libro FM library instead of zipped MP3 files and now I wish this was the default. I like having structural elements in one fil

  • @hendrik @Blackbeard Keep an eye on the RBlind folks because they are working on patches to solve this problem but yes, the community of developers could/should step in to make it work. There's also KBin https://rblind.com/
