If they tied a bookwyrm comments section to an ISBN number for example then anybody/site could easily have it embedded to make it a universal tool rather than specifically connected to a piracy site.

Yeah, it’s silly and odd and likely done to push customers towards formats that they have greater control over.

Those epubs that aren’t really epubs, randomly disallowing azw3 files (that they support officially!!!) from being downloaded directly from the kindle’s built in browser and other restrictive behaviour are part of this. That’s why I’m eventually looking to enable epubs on kindle once the people at mobileread find a way to do it. Apparently calibre can be set up to send files too via email so that’s another option.

They’re not though. They only do over the cloud conversions from epub to an amazon proprietary format, that can make the covers or formatting go awry.

I’m envisioning Bookwyrm behaving as a comments section for anna’s archive (possibly all/any decentralised book repositary), but they’d be reviews instead. I’m reminded of discus or facebook that you often get embedded on certain sites.

I would have thought this was common knowledge. I suspect these redditors just don’t put any effort into recall or thinking in general.

No you dimwit. I read the papers. Normal people do do that. Dimwit.

Why are you so aggressive man?

I don’t generally, but I’ve often wanted to buy some as ornaments. I’ve also bought one to support the author after reading the book online.

It does.

Well, everybody knows capitalism rose out of feudalism in Europe. @ Cheesus briefly mentions it too.

The sarcasm is a response to the universal assumption that money and wages were always had universally. But @ TheChurn says very few were paid and those were rare.

Reminder: the soviets ran a state-capitalist system. That’s not very feudalist.

I think you’ve misunderstood her quite a bit. Happens a lot on here lol.

Can you elaborate on your assumptions and why he might assume it’s a paradise?

Aren’t they the same company? Or is this that Nord-Sud thing?
