No, not you too 😭
Passionate Scarlet@Gargron I have wikipedia downloaded on all of my devices. I'm sure a lot of nerd will recreate it easily if shit hits the fan ✌️

Wikipedia isn't a tech product. It's a huge community effort. And you can't just try to move a community from one place to another without a risk of it splintering. Which is really the last thing we need in our current times.
@frog_reborn @Gargron I trust the fanbase. But you're right, the risk is that wikipedia become shitty and, even though a great alternative exists. It does on a niche part of the web where only experts will work on it. Therefore they are not enough to maintain correctly the alternative. So we'll have an incomplete communist wiki and a complete shitty wiki. Yeah, I see now how it can be damaging. We need to fight for a democratic wiki then, and democratic web and social media platforms too !
