That's the same sensation I found with leaving Twitter and joining Mastodon. I found that I was more inclined to engage rather than simply read information, and it was more straightforward to curate the information and people I wanted to follow.

I honestly don't know. I only just found out about BookWyrm from that post on Mastodon. Interestingly, the text of the toot was autoposted into the text box when I put the link into the link box. That text is from Rambling Readers! I don't want to misattribute things.

That said, I think there's a chance. It would probably show up in the "Microblog" portion of the magazine. That is setup to pick up on hashtags in the Fediverse and so if BookWyrm federated made a post that had a particular hashtag, it might show up here.

But in short, I simply am unsure all the intricacies of the fediverse here. I've really only interacted with Mastodon up to this point (and it's gone well)

Just means you need to get extra book box sized boxes for moving :D

Doesn't hurt to invest in a hand truck so you don't have to carry them from point A to point B and can just load up the truck and wheel them around.

I'll be honest... I basically don't track my reading. There are enough metrics in my life that I don't have control over, that I don't feel it necessary or useful to apply a tracking to what I do in my spare time. I try to make sure I get the book club book read before the monthly meeting, and otherwise I guess the tracking is the pile of books in the TBR pile and the read pile (and what's on bookshelves. I figure if I don't remember a book well enough to recommend it to someone, it was probably fairly forgettable, and if I do it was probably pretty memorable and that's good enough for me!
