This is the first Goodreads alternative that actually feels sustainable as a replacement. So many other book social and reading log apps are out there, but Hardcover is the first where I've felt they're releasing features (and for a bootstrapped app they have incredibly momentum releasing new features and improvements) that actually improve on what Goodreads offers, instead of just being "less bloated." Adam and Ste are dogfooding the app like crazy as they build it, and their obvious love of reading and books shows in every decision and aspect the product. I have a lot of confidence in this app getting better and better as they continue to develop it.
Since I know they're reading, I will offer 1 piece of feedback: this concept of the "Airlist," I really don't get what it's for, or why that's its name. Is it, like, built on Airtable under the hood, and the name is playing off that? If so, non-tech readers won't get that and it's confusing. Can it have a more book-relevant name? Is there a function to it existing? I dunno.
