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 :)

Bookwyrm is my favourite social media, though I don't actually spend much time on it. You've got to follow a lot of people before it gets interesting, but even then, it will never be popping.

Just to get prescriptive for a moment: If you check it obsessively you'll be very disappointed. But if you just spend some time with it only whenever you're logging some book update, then you're more likely to find a satisfying cadence.
