This is so fascinating. Have you found a significant difference in the quality of the content between Storygraph and Goodreads? Back when I spent time on Goodreads it seemed like there was a lot noise:signal there. I honestly don't spend enough time reading reviews on either platform these days, so I'm interested to know if you've found anything in this regard.

I can definitely read all of the reviews on Storygraph, whether I follow someone or not. It's not intuitive the way it is on GR, but they're publicly available.

Sorry for the delay in responding! You are correct about being able to see all reviews on StoryGraph, they're just not as easy to find! I've updated my post to reflect this. In terms of quality of content, do you mean the quality of the reviews? I would say there are a lot more rating-only reviews, and the reviews are generally much shorter. Like you, I haven't been reading reviews as much these days, but my overall impression is that the reviews are more straightforward and balanced on StoryGraph.
