How to create a decentralized kind of wiki? - Lemmy.world

I keep feeling frustrated as valuable knowledge for my different hobbies over the last years became siloed away in corporate social media. I believe wikis could be a way out, but can we have decentralized, federated wiki software that can kind of talk among each other?

Anyone can host their own wiki using the software used by Wikipedia, the WikiMedia even has very basic support for federation.

Thanks to your post I've noticed that just typing the following string while using a search engine (Google in this case) we can get all of wikis that use MediaWiki that are indexed because they follow the same URL structure:

site:*.*/wiki/Main_Page
