Are there any good quality, open-source or community-driven alternatives to goodreads? Something which offers the same discoverability service for similar or related books, including the ability to wishlist and review?

https://bookwyrm.social/ though I imagine they don’t have the algorithm for discovery and their user base isn’t large enough to really make up for it yet.

Tip:

Export your books from goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/review/import (at the top of the page)

Then import to bookwyrm at: https://bookwyrm.social/import/

👆🏻 This.

Thanks! This looks promising, hopefully it becomes more active over time.

I just joined it to help the cause. I’ve been wishing for an alternative to goodreads for quite some time now
