That's what happens already when people create lists for their own interests. Plenty nerds on bookwyrm curating books for their interests.
Well maybe once there is a truly giant instance set up, but I think it would be better to curate considering the state of publishing lmao? 95% of new books = slop
I don't understand what exactly you are describing/looking for. People are already curating lists on Bookwyrm. Slop books don't make it there when people don't recommend them. What do you think are giant instances needed for?
IDK maybe I misunderstood you & took it for saying Bookwyrm can replace Goodreads, which is more like online BarneSS and Noble. We probably have similar ideas about how to use it.
