Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including all information that can initiate conversations when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.
  7. No support questions. See !techsupport@lemmy.world

Neodb is part of the fediverse. The same family of lemmy, piefed, and mastodon etc.

If I may suggest a very active instance, eggplant is cool: https://eggplant.place/

Sign up with a fedi account was nice and smooth. I got a little nervous about this option when I marked a book "read":

But then I scrolled over and it's "Mentioned Only" 😄

Are reviews federated between servers? Some servers have no reviews and some are solely in Chinese. It seems there is no federation and no auto translate?

Otherwise the main instance seems to have a ton of reviews though if you don’t read Chinese you’re out of luck.
