I absolutely, completely disagree. I wish social media websites were controlled by foundations in the same way Wikipedia is.
Maybe it's too late, but it's worth trying. Stuff like this improves their reputation with me, not the opposite.
- gkoberger 3y agoMe too! But you need more than a fork of a fork for that to happen. The problem isn't the idea; it's that all they did was throw their logo on it and swap out auth.
- hiyer 3y agoControl by foundations is no guarantee of neutrality - Wikipedia's left wing bias is very evident.
- hughesjj 3y agoSo is reality though
- throwawayfruit 3y agoReality only has a left wing bias for left wing people. For right wingers it has a right wing bias
- benwad 3y agoDoing something without a profit motive is itself a left-wing act, that's why unpaid volunteers maintaining a site like Wikipedia might themselves have left-wing views. There's no shortage of profit-driven outlets available to balance it out.
- tpush 3y agoIf it is very evident, what's an example of Wikipedia's supposed bias?
