I’m confused how a site about learning resources is supposed to be like GoodReads, a site about books.

You can search for things, browse their reviews, add things to your collections, add reviews, follow people interested in the same topics, subscribe to topics to make a personalized dashboard - just like GoodReads. But you can do it for all kind of media like podcasts, courses, blogs, livestreams etc.

So it supports some features of goodreads in a completely different area. Seems like a strange comparison.

Seems like most of those features are the basic features of a social content site - YouTube, for example.
