I keep feeling frustrated as valuable knowledge for my different hobbies over the last years became siloed away in corporate social media. I believe wikis could be a way out, but can we have decentralized, federated wiki software that can kind of talk among each other?
Im no crypto expert, but i think it just means its decentralised so that if things are changed everyone know, theres no way to stop it. I think this is good to read: https://www.synopsys.com/glossary/what-is-blockchain.html#:~:text=A blockchain is a decentralized,the consensus of the network. So i think it’d be how wikis work now, just that nothing can be omitted. (Again not a crypto expert, so i might be wrong, but i cant see anything else itd be useful for a wiki)
RSS feed of changes lets everyone know things are changed, no blockchain needed.
Sometimes between age old protocols and new stuff popping up I completely lose direction. So to track changes we can use RSS, but also Git, but also blockchain. Do people just come up with new stuff to do old things or is the new stuff better in at least some occasions? More stupid questions of a person who likes tech but is not an IT pro…
