@liaizon @nutomic oh no, I didn't realize that was one of the Lemmy guys. I guess that means that Lemmy development will slow down.

@jeena @nutomic lemmy has many contributions I don't think this necessarily means that Lemmy dev should slow down at all

"Instead of individual, centralized websites there will be an interconnected network of encyclopedias. This means the same topic can be treated in completely different ways."

Yay, now we'll have a new wikipedia which will also present russian take on Ukraine invasion, Chinese take on Tianmen massacre and a flat-earthers corner for their "truth". I think internet already covers that..
