Heyo! For those of you using this community for info: the website is back up again!

We've also had to disable open registrations for the moment due to spam accounts.

Have a great time reading ya'll 😁

I just registered at bookwyrm.social, as I didn't get a confirmation mail from bookwyrm.world.

Just wanted to say hello! Added the first book I am reading, which was a bit complicated. Actually it's a version with 3 books in one, but I added the one I am reading as a single book version .

I know it's not quite right, but I don't want to wait 3 books to add that one.

Also adding a reading progress doesn't seem to add the book to the "currently reading" list, which was kind of confusing.

Whatever, I am happy I found a federated platform to track my reading progress :)

Version 0.7.5 has come out for bookwyrm. This should hopefully (fingers crossed) fix some import instabilities!

BookWyrm.world has also updated to this version.

I'd like to migrate to bookwyrm, but after I created my account I saw that imports from goodreads agent working right now. How long has it been down? Is it likely to get fixed soon?

There are so many duplicates of everything everywhere.

EDIT: it's back up!!! ❤

Maybe they're doing maintenance or something, I hope. I should have thought ahead and followed whoever maintains it on another platform, so I could find out what's going on in situations like this. Oops lol

Bookwyrm.world has hit over 100 members! Additionally, the instance ranks 11th among bookwyrm instances based on the MAU (Monthly Active Users), which I would say is pretty good!

I hope that we'll see the next user milestone as soon as possible! If you have questions about bookwyrm or about the bookwyrm.world instance, then either ask it in the comments, in a lemmy dm, a mastodon dm to me or the bookwyrm.world mastodon account or via mail at [email protected].

What exactly is a bookwyrm instance and how does it differ from a Lemmy instance?
