Project mention: Bookwyrm – the federated social network for reading books | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-19

It’s got a very ideologically-driven focus, including an anti-capital source license:

Also, spent a bit of time a few weeks ago and it already seemed to have the nicest UX of the open social book services, at least that I could see (would love recs - mostly interested in a personal tracker).
