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.

Funding, even in a not-for-profit sense, will always be an issue. Wikipedia struggles, but kinda makes it work. We're going to need something creative for the fediverse...

I donate to them fairly regularly, Wikipedia is fucking great!

that doesn't really hold because Wikipedia does not struggle with funding in the sense you're thinking: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/wikipedia-millions-bank-beg/
