Crazy how many people can suddenly peer into the future when this post was made! I hope they can use this power for good, maybe save us from horrible tragedies in the future instead of wailing about a Wikipedia alternative. Great work nutomic! I hope folks pitch in to help this project you've begun.

Half the comments in this thread are the exact same as when we started working on a reddit alternative lol. "I don't see why you're doing this, reddit works fine for me."

Also I'm pretty stunned that more people aren't aware of wikipedia's many scandals and issues. I suppose if you use a site every day and don't see what's going on behind the scenes, you don't seek these things out.

This ignorance is just more reason to continue working on the fediverse to help break these walls down, you are on the right path. o7
