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!

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 [email protected]. 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: @[email protected]

What's the current status of Bots on Lemmy? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Bots that want to be here on Lemmy.World has to follow some bot-rules. This was to avoid most of the Reddit reporters and general spammy bots. Here is a list of bots that i know of: (I am not pinging the bots, as that will most likely activate them and make them answer me in some way)

And that's about it actually, as far as I know ๐Ÿ˜…

Hey there! Thank you for bringing this up! As the user @[email protected] says, the normal route for community "takeover" is to report them to us, and ask for the community that you want. I also see that you didn't want any of the communities, but thanks for reporting it! I've just now taken this up with the internal admin team :)

When you notice Lemmy is quieter than usual, then have a look at the Lemmy.world status in c/[email protected]

A tip from a LW admin (lemmy.world)
 

Heyo! Just a heads up that jelloeater added startrek.website to his lemmy status monitor. This means that you (the admins) can add a badge to the sidebar to show your uptime the last 24 hours, if you want. Basically, it's free status monitoring.

Bay!

Fedidb.org recommends to use active users stats instead of total users stats. (fedidb.org)
 

Fedidb.org recommends people who view their statistics on their โ€œThreadiverseโ€ tracking page that people should not use graphs and numbers from the total users due to the surge of bot-accounts, and should instead use the monthly active users. This puts the โ€œThreadiverseโ€ at 87,089. Lemmy with 37,197 and Kbin at 44,136. Fedidb.org also shows that the number of accounts is now at 1,75 million, though most of these accounts are probably just bots.
