A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I find it reassuring that Wikipedia is doing it's best to try and maintain truth and accountability. I agree they should be hosted in a different place.

Side thought/my own ramblings here: Has there ever been hosting where the information is scattered across the world rather than one localized spot? That seems like it might be helpful, but I honestly don't know enough about site hosting

In a certain sense we are using a system like this, due to federation. I don't think the exact same model would work well for Wikipedia, but it could try something similar.
