bookwyrm-social/bookwyrm — Social reading and reviewing, decentralized with ActivityPub

Description and use

bookwyrm is an open‑source platform for social reading and book reviewing that lets users share their reading activity, write reviews, and follow friends across the web. Built on the ActivityPub protocol, it operates as a decentralized service, enabling federation with other compatible instances while preserving user control over data.
