    I tried it, but actually using it to create lists of books is effectively impossible. It lets you click one of the 5 books it shows you, or you can manually search every book. It’s a brutal experience. Goodreads letting you go through your books as a table and checkbox which books to add blows it out of the water.

    I might self host it so I can see what options I have to either make a new page to make lists in a way that’s actually functional, or see how the data is managed to write a script to import those correctly from goodreads, but it’s extremely painful to do right now.

    Admittedly it’s young, and I appreciate that being open source means that it’s something I can roll my own spins on, but right now it’s pretty rough.
