You do realize this entire post here is about GoodReads discontinuing their API? And as a reaction to that, you’re suggesting moving to another provider that doesn’t allow exporting your data either.

LibraryThing has several robust export options and an API. As they also run small "actual" libraries that includes some interesting old catalog formats as well.

Not sure if you've used the APIs recently, but they have been disabled without warning since October: "Our APIs are indeed disabled for now. They will be re-enabled at some point but we don't have an immediate timeline for it, so I wouldn't expect them back anytime soon." [0]
