Both fediverse softwares that support user reviews for books, both have RSS support natively (no Piefed/Misskey bridge needed), and some comments also seem discontent with Amazon’s mismanagement overall.

Are all the people here recommending Bookwyrm and NeoDB actually using them?
I just spent a solid chunk of time importing and correcting various accounts to NeoDB and Bookwyrm and they are both petty frustrating to use, especially with how much content is missing, mislabeled, or duplicated. Plus, they don’t seem to federate with each other (understandable, in so far as very few parts of the Fediverse actually federate well together [unlike, perhaps, Mastodon and mbin]) or even support exporting/importing data from each other.
Can’t tell for others, but I try to use NeoDB (@Auster@eggplant.place) whenever I remember to. Just don’t use it more because I’m pretty busy.
But on lack of contents, mislabeling, lack of cross-federation between BookWyrm and NeoDB, not unsolvable issues. Like people would complain about Lemmy in 2022 but now is pretty active, edits on entries (at least on NeoDB) being possible for any users afaik (though might need approval to avoid abuses), cross-federarion being possible to suggest in the softwares’ issue trackers, and so on.
