I use Storygraph.

I use Openreads app. It saves everything locally. You can add books from the Open Library database. I'm surprised no one mentioned it yet.

I use bookwyrm. Out of principle I won’t use storygraph because it’s closed source.

I agree with you the duplication on BookWyrm is annoying.

I’ve been looking into !neodb@lemmy.zip it looks quite promising but I haven’t had the energy to really engage with it and test it.

I use StoryGraph. Because goodreads is owned by Amazon and I won't use anything Amazon anymore. Even ditched my kindle and got a Kobo e reader

Storygraph for me. I agree with you about their recommendations.

One I haven't seen mentioned yet is Hardcover. My (very limited) impression is their database needs some filling in, but they do have lists and such, and they're working toward becoming open source.

Storygraph. I don't care for social features or recommendations so suits me well. I only like tracking my books and reading reviews.

Switched to GoodReads when Shelfari went down. Now I've moved to Storygraph. It's fine.

I use Goodreads, but it feels like it's dying if not already dead and am shifting away from it. I use Fable and Openreads almost exclusively now. Fable is nice cuz it gives you a monthly recap and at the end of the year a thing like Spotify does for music. But it doesn't have every book so sometimes I read something and can't say I did. They have a form for submitting a book, but I've never actually had them add it.

So I use Openreads to keep track for myself. It's not remotely as exciting as the social ones, but the fact nearly every book ever is on there is incredibly helpful for keeping track of where I'm at on my reading goals.

I have been using LibraryThing for a long long time. Used Goodreads for a little while in between, cause some of my friends were there, but it didn't last too long.

I mainly care about cataloging aspects, instead of social aspects, and LT is great for that.

I have also tried few desktop only cataloging application, and I was pretty happy with those, except I can't lookup which books I already have when I am at shop.

I mainly use a combination of Hardcover and StoryGraph. I like the interface Of Hardcover better and its business model. They recently just added a bunch of developers and other people To help shore up some of their weakness especially in their book data. StoryGraph handles reading challenges better in fact, we have one therefore our Book Bingo.

I exclusively use Bookwyrm now. The duplicates are annoying so I pick the one with the most reviews and if something is missing details I just add them myself.

I use Storygraph but I hate how it looks. But that’s just me, I’m a style over substance kind of person

I tried to use that Fediverse book thing and couldn't figure it out. It was badly fragmented, not very good at searches, and had a UX that I can comfortably compare to getting my eyes scooped out by a spork.

I'd love to see a good site for tracking and sharing books.
