I'm still on Goodreads but it's so slow, the app's just an even slower webview of the site and the redesign has made me have to click more to do what I want.

What's the alternative? Obviously we're on the fediverse and I see people talking about Bookwyrm.

I used Anobii till 2010 and I can't remember why I left but it's still there. I've poked StoryGraph a bit but it was lacking several of the books I wanted to add.

There must be more! What do you use/recommend?

I use Librarything - I tried Bookwyrm but it could not handle the size of my import and there doesn't seem to be any mass-edit options that would let me fix it. Similar situation with Storygraph.

How many books are we talking about here?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

~2k books. I might have tried dividing my import files into multiple smaller files to see if that took, it was a while back.

Hmm, that's a lot but not that many; my read + to-read comes to about 1k and I'm far from being the kind of person who flies through several YA books every week.

Thank you for saying it's not that many haha, it makes me feel like my people are here. But yeah, I frequently see social media catalogs with extensive TBRs hit >10k.
