If you are from reddit, there was a subreddit called "RedditRead" which aggregated automatically all books title found in "what are you reading" threads and making a post for each one with a link to Goodreads. I think this was great and would be a good idea to implement on Lemmy, but with the following changes:

• Due to the concept of federation, less centralized, I think the bot should takes it's input from several communities (!Books@lemmy.world; !Books@lemmy.ml; !Literature@beehaw.org; ...)
• It should not promote non-free service like Goodreads but rather use open library or bookwyrm api to fetch it's data and link to those free services

What do you think? I may be interested in developing something (using some existing bot framework, should not be too difficult), but I will not be able to host it (unless it can be done for free - without too much assle).
