I still think this is a good idea.

I want there to be a bookstr app, kinda like goodreads, but without the gross big tech BS, utilizing the interoperable nature of nostr keys to be able to connect with others and do all the bookworm stuff that one can do.
I currently use openreads (find it on F-Droid) to track books I've read. I wonder if that could be used as a starting point?

I do too
Same. I abandoned my openreads ☹️
I'd love to start over on Nostr.
What made you abandon open reads? I still use it. I haven't been reading as many books lately, but it still serves the function of cataloging what I've read.
Not because I dislike it, but my book reading rate fell and I stopped keeping it updated. And a few phone/OS migrations later, I never ended up restoring the app with all my history.
Gotcha. It would be killer if Someone forked it and brought it up to nostr standards for login and interoperability.
Haha, yes. Fork every useful open source app and back up your data to Nostr relays 💯
Backup and restore is the most clunky part of those apps.
Or just an import feature?
