Become a Github sponsor or buy the dev a coffee.
They miss some critical features like tracking series and since they only offer integration with Open Library most of your books will have to be added manually.
Once https://www.librarything.com fixes their API, it would be nice to see an integration with Openreads.
I guess the point is being open-source and integrating with open-source projects. Is this the case with LibraryThing? 🤔
Sounds like an interesting tool! But the negative comments on here make me uncertain. Any more positive experiences? I actually recently thought about how Goodreads is not really what I want and I’m a developer. Not that I truly have time to contribute im afraid though .
I really like the app for my personal reading tracking. Been using it for a couple years, and this year (?) there was a huge update that improved it a lot (better UX/UI and statistics if I'm not mistaken).
It's mostly an app that does what it should, but not more, and gets out the way, which is awesome.
Works well for keeping track of books I've read an yearly reading goals
This project was actually my exit way from Goodreads. Unlike another commenter, I found virtually no issue with searching for books in European languages. All the statistics which GR offers are available, and you can easily import your books to the app. And of course, no ads, zero trackers and open source.
The only caveat is the social aspect, since this is an offline tracker.
Edit: If you have any concerns, hop on the matrix community where the dev is active.
I wonder how this compares with Bookwyrm, which is federated.
This is an offline tracker, so it doesn't compare per se. There were talks about integrating bookwyrm into the app, but as of now there is no public API.
Same issue. Both rely purely on Open Library who have very limited database, so you pretty much have to enter all data manually. That's not an issue if you have 10 or 50 books. But once you reach 1000s it's not viable.
Don't bookwyrm also uses inventaire.io too?
I would donate if they accepted Monero
I would love to see this app also get the option to import local epub files as well, because in my short amount of use, I much prefer this UI and layout to MoonReader which I tend to fallback to using for epub's.
I'm afraid this is not an ebook reader, but a book tracker.
