  • 12k views but probably 10k are bots and the others are too busy scrolling to ever use your knowledge. And then your content is buried on someone else's platform. I think reddit (and lemmy for that case) are horrible for keeping and spreading useful information and I wonder why people see them as the best alternative.

  • These products - Googles convenience products as well as the Social Media shite - were introduced gradually at the time. The single steps people took towards using these products seemed innocuous. Before you know it, your whole life is enmeshed in a privacy nightmare and the convenience and quality you were used to is gone. It's like buying an apartment in a nice place of town and then within the next two decades the area turns into a shady ghetto slum.

  • Parent here. I am terrified of roller coasters. I'm a DIY and tech person, and I can see how shoddy they are built and maintained. I did however let my kid ride in them when we went to one of them awful parks (grandpa invited us, kid was still young and excited). Kid had the time of his life, I died a thousand times (I tried out the milder ones myself and watched kid ride the bad ones).

  • I was trying so much to get rid of that shit. No luck, everyone and their dog only knows of Whatsapp and will not use other apps

  • Git seems to be a good way to approach this. It's funny that I never really had to get around to what Git actually is (some thingy to store files for programmer teams?). For a somewhat technophile but non-IT person it's all a bit overwhelming.

  • All you guys think fandom type wikis. I am thinking about practical knowledge. A wiki about donkey care can very well need a quick link to a wiki about medicinal plants, and wikis about adjacent practical topics, or think for example car tuners and motorbike tuners - they might like to have different wikis but will have lots of similar or equal topics. Wouldn't a federated wiki mean it can be better protected from attempts of centralized censorship?

  • This is what I mean. Lots of small wikis, like subreddits, like the old forums, only that a wiki setup seem to me a better way to collect and present knowledge than the forums, mailing lists, facebook groups, subreddits or wherever we used to put our stuff.

  • I would want, for example, be capable of easily linking between the info for a particular plant in my botany wiki and my herbalism wiki. But I don't want to overwhelm the botany wiki contributor with a heavy list of medical input fields when he enters a new article.

  • Can you explain what this does like I'm 5 please?

  • Is there an explanation for stupid of how SearXNG works? I tried it for a while after getting too frustrated with the Google enshittification, but couldn't get results really.

  • No Stupid Questions @lemmy.world

    How to create a decentralized kind of wiki?
