Now is a good time to flood Wikipedia with donations. For the first time in my life, i have just donated to them and will do so again. You can do it too for a minimum of €2, no requirement for recurring donations or any nonsense.
You are aware that Musk isn’t doing what he’s done to Xitter because he’s stupid, right? That he’s very intentionally destroying the platform, and that was a platform purchased at 44 billion?
Idk, names are pretty fucking important to search engines.
Although, they could pull an ultra 5head omega brain move and change the name alongside a policy that allows anyone to change wikipedias name similarly to it’s articles. Maybe let it last a week for notoriety, change the policy back alongside the name and pocket the money.
Sounds like a decent deal and pretty funny tbh wikimedia foundation gets a shit ton of money which’ll go towards a variety of good causes while being in the public eye because elon is involved and Elon is a big figure Elon gets to make a billon dollar shitpost everyone’s happy sure as hell doesn’t seem like Elon is attacking wikimedia foundation just that he wants to make a bad financial decision although saying that most things Elon do end up being bad financial decisions
I checked their reported expenses and couldn’t really find anything they “blow” money on. Their revenue is smaller than a midsize EU football team, and considering the value comparison between the two, that makes me think either we disagree completely, you have extra info that you did not share, or I don’t understand you.
I mean, I’m not sure what they use all that money to develop, but they definitely don’t need all this money to just develop and sustain. Despite activity having hit its peak in the 2000s, spending continues to increase, and extensive feature request and enhancement backlog still stands while developers focus on whatever the foundation’s whim is. Not to mention there’s some controversy over the Tides Foundation.
