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 was using Storygraph for a little while once I decided I no longer wanted to use Goodreads due to being owned by Amazon.

Then I tried Openreads for a short time, before realising I missed some of the social elements of the first two.

Finally settled on a local BookWyrm instance, Rambling Readers, which I'm happy with. It sometimes requires a bit of manual editing of books, but the more people use BookWyrm and contribute, the less often that should be necessary.
