I haven't seen anything, but then the only place I ever looked was in the bug reporting discussion group here. It feels like they've completely abandoned the site. I'm grateful that it's still possible to post here, but I don't know that I'd recommend that people move here from Goodreads. Unfortunately, I don't know what else I'd recommend. LibraryThing, my other book site, is a terrible social book site, and would only really work for those whose primary goal was a book/reading catalog.
Yeah, I'm not recommending anyone move here. I shared that I love the community and the interface but I fully expect to show up one day and have the site just be gone like Leafmarks - except without the notice.
I signed up for a LibraryThing account but it's pretty hard on the eyes and there's just so much!
I've been hoping Riffle would turn into a good community site but their staff seem to disappear and they have no groups and hardly any member conversation where it is available. It's a sad state of affairs for bookworms right now.
LibraryThing has a horrible learning curve. I only persevered because I wanted to move away from Goodreads and I knew right away that Booklikes wasn't going to fully serve my needs as a book catalog. I'm happy with it now that I've gotten used to it, enough so that I went ahead and cataloged my entire paper book collection, but it's really not newbie-friendly.
I've heard of Riffle and a few other book sites, but I haven't heard of a single one that sounds like a good Goodreads alternative. Definitely sad.
I had imported my collection from GR into LibraryThing but had hundreds with no covers. So I deleted everything and will slowly add things. It's actually sort of fun. And I figure it'll help me to learn the system more through heavy use. I've joined one group to see how that goes, too.
That's what I ended up doing, too -- both here and on Leafmarks (ah, Leafmarks ... :/ ). Took me about a year and a half, but at the end of that time my bookshelves were better organized than they had ever been on Goodreads!
Well, it's vacation time right now, and if things in Poland work even remotely similar to Germany, France and the Netherlands, it's no particular surprise that nobody is on board and communicating right now -- and won't be, basically, until the end of August. They seem to be seriously understaffed as it is, and there only ever seems to be one person who communicates at all (albeit sporadically) these days. If that one single person is on vacation (and they presumably wouldn't have the right to forbid him / her to take a vacation), we won't be hearing from them at all until the end of summer.
Pity, really, as I'd love to recommend BookLikesk to other folks, too, but I agree; right now just doesn't seem to be the time to do so ...
