acloudofbats commented on a feature request
I didn't see this mentioned in the (🔗 web feature parity with app)[https://pagebound.co/roadmap/31] roadmap item being worked on right now so I'm not sure if this will be part of that or not. I've had the experience that blocking on web only partially works in that I still sometimes get interactions from people I've blocked, and still see their comments anywhere they've made them. If they make top-level posts in club or a book forum, those are filtered out, and if I go to their profile, their activity is the only thing hidden. I can still see everything on all the other tabs of their profile. If I click through to their profile through certain links like from a comment they made, I can sometimes also see their activity.
I know I'm very uncomfortable having people I blocked continuing to show up, as well as knowing they can see me everywhere the same way. Having an easy way to get around web blocking and see what people are saying was also brought up very recently in a now-archived post in a quest forum that got heated, and brought up more discomfort and anxiety from this necessary feature not currently working properly.
I'm not sure what the process is like behind-the-scenes to choose which roadmap items are worked on next, but knowing that user privacy is important to Pagebound, I hope y'all can make this one a priority.

I was looking at some banned book lists earlier and I was thinking how fun it would be to have a banned book quest! What quest would you love to have?! and badge idea? I would love a childhood book quest, banned book quest and more horror quests!

In the royalty stats page, I think it would be really neat if we could tap on the bars for say the enjoyment graph and see which books we rated for which enjoyment level! At the moment we just see the bars with the number of books listed above for each star rating, but it would be nice if we could tap those bars which then present us with a more detailed stats overview with the books for that particular bar! Otherwise we have to manually sort through our reviews so see which ones fall under which rating (which can be tedious after reading so many books).

Should have known the kid wouldn’t be an honest broker, not with all the wallahis he threw around. Anybody who swore to God that habitually couldn’t be trusted.
i love the way the author subtly incorporated this translation into the text! i am not familiar with arabic at all, so its such a nice touch. it also makes me excited for the world building! i love it when authors can just paint a picture of the world without overloading you with information or taking you out of the story with explicit exposition 🤩

Death Positivity
Death will unfailingly find every person to have ever lived, yet is treated as a taboo topic in some cultures, causing extreme, pervasive anxiety. This nonfiction list aims to broaden understanding of this inevitability, both to hopefully negate some of the anxiety as well as satisfy some of our more morbid curiosities. It also aims to show that death is another, still useful, stage in the life cycle, aiding those that remain by helping to advance medicine, solve crimes, or understand art.
