Comment on What is a federated alternative to Wikipedia?
blargh513@sh.itjust.works 3 days agoThe world does not need a fucking opinionpedia. We have enough morons filling the internet with bullshit; having an authoritative, factual source for a wide variety of data is a good thing.
I have no desire to read some crackpot’s opinion on JFK. Objective facts are critical to a healthy society. We can see how bad things get when people tear apart the fabric of knowledge and replace it with misinformation.
Fuck that right in the ear.

You understand that you never actually had unmediated access to “the fabric of knowledge”, right? You just had sources that you agreed with

And adding a trashcan full of opinions takes everyone further from truth, not closer.
