There's a promising start for an anti-goodreads subreddit, we should take this opportunity to direct them to open source alternatives (www.reddit.com)

The people there are full of potential, they only need guidance.

Unfortunately I don't have a reddit account to do so myself, but I hope that someone is interested in teaching them about open source softwares like bookwyrm and even the open source philosophy in general.

That sub seems very dead

I see one thread/day on average. Doesn't seem dead to me...?

The sub was created less than a month ago, what do you expect? I figured it could be a modest start to guide people towards healthier alternatives.

Has there been some changes in goodreads recently?

[–] Tatar_Nobility@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

As far as I know they drastically changed the book details page without consulting the users who, shocker, aren't happy with it. That was a couple of months ago.
