Thanks !

Unfortunately, I have heard that Bookwyrm development is on pause.

Any better info on that ?

( I am there on Bookwyrm: @fresseng@bw.heraut.eu )

@fresseng

I haven't heard that? Where did you see it?

Just checked the Github and the lead developer's latest commit was 11 hours ago:

github.com/bookwyrm-social/boo

Before that there were a bunch of commits 4 days ago.

I'm not a developer so I may be misinterpreting this, but it seems active?

@FediTips @fresseng Sometimes GH bots seem to make their own commits, it could be that too.
