I remember someone shared a federated alternative to Wikipedia here and I don’t remember the name of the project. Perplexity, Google and alternativeto.net are no good in finding it. Does anybody know its name?

    To be fair, out of all non-federated platforms, Wikipedia is the one that needs federation the least.

      Honestly, if wikipedia ever becomes federated, i would assume it would split into platforms like conservapedia, rationalpedia, etc.
      No thanks

        Which all, unfortunately, already exist

        It’s always awesome when evil groups use the output from good folk torile against those good folk

      Probably to stop ill-intentioned people from putting their unfactual propaganda on the articles or something.
