Hey! I'm pretty new to Hardcover, but I immediately fell in love with the design and brought my partner and friend over (hopefully will get another friend to join!) Planning on supporting next month. Everything about the app and the team are amazing. Keep up the good work! Didn't know about 250 members in the last three days - really happy to hear that & will be recommending Hardcover for a long time.

Aww, thank you so much! I think I saw you joined our Discord too. Welcome to the community. :)

The recent redesign of the book page alone took about 6 months of research, prototypes and discussions with readers before it got to where it is today. One of my favorite parts was posting on Discord, getting feedback, and then updating the designs over and over until it was right. I think we'll probably do that again for Discussions and Author page updates next.

I did, thank you! I recently got into reading again after a long time, and tried a few different websites before I found Hardcover through Reddit. Really happy I didn't settle. The amount of feedback you all take is really incredible and exactly what me and my friend were looking for - a great team alongside a great website that we want to support. I really didn't want to support Amazon. Excited to see what comes next!
