My title might be a bit hyperbolic, but stuff like this worries me. I love to read and I love reading on a kindle. This has been going on for a while, but it has now reached absurd levels.

    There’s even a federated alternative, BookWyrm!

    …I guess these days the Fediverse is my hammer of choice, and every problem with the internet is a nail.

      How does the federation work in this case? Do I have to create a new account there, or can I see their content using my Kbin account?

        I guess the most intuitive way to federate is that you can follow @user, after which all reviews published by the user will appear in your subscriptions. You can participate in the conversation as normal, and boost it to increase visibility across the Fediverse.

        If you want to do more sophisticated things like manage your library or post reviews, I think you’ll have to sign up for an instance of BookWyrm. :)
