Might use Fedi less after this, not sure. We'll see.

Can we just casually talk about how mind boggling #Wikipedia is as a concept nowadays?

We're living in a world where knowledge and the infrastructure it runs on is aggressively monetized.

And out here, like a microcosm of the old web, is a wiki that's not run by a profit incentive that has created a repository on human knowledge.

And it has its own mini-culture based on that community from community awards https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Awards
to injokes.

In no particular order,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Assume_bad_faith
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Why_not_create_an_account%3F

And that's ignoring the other super useful projects they maintain, like Wiktionary, which provides a free multilingual dictionary that often includes slang and other terms that wouldn't be in a normal dictionary and, as I'm typing this, my feed shows they're just launching another project.

Just amazing how this still exists despite how much the internet changed.

@anarchopunk_girl This is unfortunately rather bitcrushed so difficult to read, you got a higher quality version?

Hey LGBTQ Fedi people, if you live in the EU and are above 15 years old, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights has made a survey for LGBTQ people living in the EU. Estimated 20 minutes.
