I remember someone shared a federated alternative to Wikipedia here and I don’t remember the name of the project. Perplexity, Google and alternativeto.net are no good in finding it. Does anybody know its name?

    I like what you said. But categorizing and labeling media websites is not at all as contributing with knowledge to a corpus of information. Contributing with more information brings more freedom, while restraining something to a label diminishes freedom.

    Edit: For example, if I tell the person that a news website is left leaning, I’m telling her what she needs to know about that website. And it will also shape her opinion about the website, in ways that could be limiting.

    When a person visits a website without a formed opinion about it, she can construct her own opinion and have a personal relationship with what the website has to say.
