What do people use to track their reading? (kbin.social)

As title. Even better if whatever you use also helps with recommendations! I’ve been mostly using Goodreads, but Bookwyrm looks like a neat decentralized alternative. Does anyone have any experience with it?

Yeah, Bookwyrm is fun. It's pretty basic in terms of tracking compared to GR but works and I like that I can follow my friends from masto.

I found Bookwyrm to be too much work, because most of the books I read weren't on there so I have to manually add everything. Also the instance I was on was horribly slow.

Oof that sounds like it could get tedious. I suppose this is something that might be solved as more people use it, and it builds up an internal catalogue of books?
