Oh how I would love to have a website which could recommend me #books — and whose recommendations would actually work!
I've been using #Goodreads for years, but one of the features I would most love there is one of the worst: recommendations. They just don't work. They're total bullshit, based on commercial ends more than on artistic attributes of books.
I want working recommendations. Do you know where to get them? And algorithmically, so that they won't run out.
@Stoori on librarything they seem to work better, at least for some niches. probably because users can make recommendations there and others can up/downvote them. but sadly librarything can be annoyingly complicated, it took me long to understand some basic functions.
@Stoori (in some places, automatic and member recommendations are separated, like in the screenshot, in others they are mixed, i think. it is also possible to rate automatic recommendations.) https://computerfairi.es/media/ommZ9UqJQq244Gg7qzs
