Well, okay, I joined . I am not excited about it so far, though, and I guess it's mostly just because the first thing I want to do is enter a whole bunch of books I've read, but it seems to insist that I GIVE IT THE DATE THAT I FINISHED for every book.

I don't remember! Why should I have to remember? Or alternately why should I have to lie?

@ceoln I imported my Goodreads data into Bookwyrm, and it's not asking me for any dates. Weird.

Yeah, apparently it's only certain paths to entering a book (and maybe certain browsers, even?) where the control requires a date. So I am more hopeful now!

Is there a simple way to import goodreads into ? I should look that up...

@ceoln I just exported all my data from Goodreads and then imported it into Bookwyrm. The export was very fast, the import not so much.

@susanna
Thanks! I'm in the midst of doing that now, having found the relevant buttons. And yeah, the import looks like it'll take awhile. :) But that's okay.
