For those who don't know, Bookwyrm is basically a better, federated Goodreads. Because it speaks ActivityPub, you can subscribe to someone's Bookwyrm feed from directly in Mastodon and see the book reviews they post!

Also there are 2 spots remaining in the Bookwyrm patreon to pay $40/mo and support the project in a huge way *and* have @tripofmice run a server for you and 50 of your bookwormiest friends: https://www.patreon.com/bookwyrm

BookWyrm is a decentralized social network for tracking your reading, talking about books, writing reviews, and discovering what to read next.

@darius I set up an account earlier this morning but it says I've only requested to follow myself from Mastodon- and I definitely don't have follow requests enabled in Bookwyrm. Is that expected?
@tacoman_x86 if the server is extremely swamped, which is highly likely today of all days (it's the busiest day I've ever seen on fediverse stats-wise), it might just take a while for the back-and-forth handshake that's required to happen
@darius Ah, yeah that makes sense. Thanks!
