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

I recently discovered Bookwyrm and am really liking it. It's not quite as full-featured as The Storygraph or Goodreads but it covers all of the most important functionalities and it's federated which I appreciate. Something that it is missing Vs either The Storygraph or Goodreads at the moment is volume of reviews (ie. Volume of users.) However, your review won't get lost in the sea so much and I've found that it's been quite easy to find readers with similar interests.

Anyway, who here is using Bookwyrm? What's your account so we can all follow each other? (Mine is Unfreeze4257@books.theunseen)

I've had a Bookwyrm account for about a year - I mainly read fantasy fiction. It's at @chris (https://wyrms.de/@chris)
I originally posted this from Mastodon but it doesn't appear to have federated properly, so apologies if this is a duplicate!

As an aside, I tried following this community from Bookwyrm, but it just got stuck on "follow requested". I don't think it would have shown anything anyway, but interesting that it can't even follow it.
