Filter Other People's To-Read Pile by What I've Read and Want to Read

When looking at other people's To-Read Piles (and Read books) it would be nice to be able to filter books I've read and books I want to read. This could go under the "Only show me books.." section of the filter options

Yes! At minimum it would be cool if you could do this with friends, because we were recently looking for books to read in a buddy read and that would have been an easy way to see which books we had on our to reads in common.
joti Did you try the Buddy Reads Book Suggestion feature, which looks at both of your to-reads and picks out the books it thinks would be best for everyone involved in the buddy read??
(I understand why you'd still want the filter, but just curious!)
Nadia I hadn't discovered that one yet, great to know it exists! Thanks for telling me about it! I just had a look and it looks really cool, although I don't see a book that we both have on our 'to read' appear as a suggestion, so I'm curious as to how it chooses books to suggest.
joti It's machine learning so not just a straightforward "find two books on the to-read" hence why I said I can see why you'd still want a filter. But if it finds a strong match on both to-reads then those will be prioritised! Several factors are included!
Nadia Is it possible for there to be a button that you can click that is an "exact match" aka it has to be on both our tbr. I do like that it can generate suggestions with machine learning tho! Very cool
fell4 Yes, perhaps!
