Hold onto your book reviews, because X isn't the only app that some users are ditching in the wake of the U.S. election. Some readers say they've left Goodreads, a popular platform for tracking and reviewing books, in favour of The StoryGraph, coined as an "Amazon-free alternative."

Great (and often unintentionally hilarious) video from Hailey Hughes demonstrating a few alternatives to Goodreads.
Lots of helpful poking around to see what they're about.
Added Pickwick to my list of Goodreads alternatives.
Pickwick is the place to discover new series and stories from independent authors across platforms. The site concentrates on Fantasy genres such as LitRPG and Progression fantasy, and is nicely designed and built.
