It's been pretty chill here, so I'll blabber about some fluff just because I want to talk lol.
I found yet another book focused social site and signed up just to see what was up. The design/vibes definitely favor Gen Z and the AO3-as-first-fandom-community demographic but overall, I like it. The forums have a Reddit style upvoting and downvoting, which I like. And a badge/achievement system. They also have a points system that I don't like as much, but I'm well known to be susceptible to number-go-up motivation. (For example, you get 8 points for each post you make, you get a point per upvote, and the thing I like least: you get a point for each follower you have.)
I'd also share my profile with you for funsies, but you have to sign up to see anything. (If you do, you can look me up as seabunnie.) Which, besides being forced to login with a google account, I think is a good thing, with the attempts at censorship being what they are today. And you can even email the site creators. I did, reporting a bug and asking a few questions, and they responded this morning. (Apparently, we'll be getting the ability to login without a google account when the app launches.)
( Oh! And they have a set list of avatars you can choose from too. I'm a book dragon :D )
