One of the main devs of Lemmy (@nutomic) just announced a federated wiki project called Ibis

"Instead of individual, centralized websites there will be an interconnected network of encyclopedias. This means the same topic can be treated in completely different ways."

Yay, now we'll have a new wikipedia which will also present russian take on Ukraine invasion, Chinese take on Tianmen massacre and a flat-earthers corner for their "truth". I think internet already covers that..

Would have preferred a federated wiki in Lemmy, but still cool.

Is it linked to the ongoing Drama on the french wikipedia ?

How does federation works with with "SEO" ? Wikipedia is always among the top result on search engine, how would peopel find about Ibis ?
