Comment on wiki.lemmy.zip - Lemmy.zip's test wiki
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 months agoI’m just imagining the wiki being filled with political extremes or something similar that originates from somewhere else.
I personally don’t really see the point of ibis and it seems like not the greatest software for the Job. With that being said, it I don’t know the much about alternatives. In the free software community I mod someone suggested Media Goblin mediagoblin.org

Ibis has only really been around a couple of weeks and is brand new by one of the Lemmy devs, so this is really a test to see how it functions and how easy it is to use.
One of the benefits is censorship resistance and also downtime resistance. If your favourite community has a wiki and suddenly that wiki goes offline, all the other instances will have a copy of that wiki, much like a lemmy community, so that information isn’t suddenly lost forever.

Ah, that makes sense. I guess I’m just a Wikipedia fan.
