I think there is one on f-drpid. But using the website as is works great on mobile aswell.

[–] MrCenny@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

Yeah. It is kinda "lacking" in the terms of reviews. But for each goodreads people that join, the more reviews and books we get, as you can import your goodreads library. And knowing the fediverse, it won't be that long, I hope ;P

Lol, yeah. It can be a little lacking for now, but knowing the fediverse, it won't be long until it also gets populated!

[–] MrCenny@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

Lol yeah. Would be nice. But I'll bet ya we'll make an instance for it whenever it gets made :P

Bookwyrm is specifically made for booksharing and book reviewing. While lemmy is more general. For instance, this is a link to the "a game of thrones book" https://bookwyrm.world/book/8138/s/a-game-of-thrones. Here you have reviews of the book. You can also add that book to your "to read" list aswell.

If you are interested in sharing book recommendations with other, or just manage your books, then bookwyrm is great for that! The .world team also has a bookwyrm instance up and running at bookwyrm.world with a community here on lemmy as well at !bookwyrm@lemmy.world. Read Ruuds original post about it here: https://lemmy.world/post/5904792

If you want to join another bookwyrm instance, then head over to joinbookwyrm.com.

Anyway, it's a great place to find books, share books, and find people with similar interests in books! If there is anything that you feel needs to be improved or changed on the bookwyrm.world instance, then contact me!

EDIT - Mastodon account for the instance: @bookwyrmworld@mastodon.world

I don't think they have become the most popular thing on Lemmy. But there exist communities for crypto currency. Just use the search function and search on all federated instances :)

Edit: https://browse.feddit.de/, an easier way to browse communities.

 

I don't know if this is a feature or not, but if it is, it's not working for me. When opening a link that refers to a post or community it opens an in-buildt browser inside of the app, instead of ridercting me inside of the app itself. It's a real pain when openig lemmy links and having to switch to a browser every time.

If this isn't a feature, is it planned?

Yeah, it just got slower and slower by the years. At some point i couldnt even load up my emails, and that was when I had to switch phones. BUT it did actually last 3 years!

Samsung galaxy S21. I really enjoy it and has worked perfectly. I like Samsung rendition of Android, I feel like it gives me a larger overview of settings and so forth. I've had an iphone 6 and Huawei Mate 20 lite. My problem with the iphone was that i didn't really understand it, and the app library was limited. The Huawei became slow fast, but that might just be because of it being the lite edition. In edition to the Samsung S21 i also own a Samsung galaxy watch 5 and a pair Samsung buds 2. Both these works great, and i really enjoy Samsungs health app wich is how the watch connects to the phone. The buds are even compatible with my windows computer :)
