After spending a few minutes, it seems like a mix of mastodon/twitter/reddit. I don’t think it’ll take the place of lemmy/kbin

I don’t have a high opinion of this.

What has Jimmy Wales been doing recently?

  1. Losing a bunch of money creating WikiTribune
  2. Pivoting that failed venture to WT Social. Quote, “However, as of November 7, 2019, Wales stated that he had just learnt about ActivityPub and was looking into it.” It took him four years to get around to it?
  3. Just now taking advantage of us to start yet another social media network. And what does he do first thing? Ask for donations.

Yeah I’m not going anywhere near there.

the guy famous for his non-profit organisation* asking for donations and losing money on his projects is an extremely weird thing to have an issue with
