It's like watching a TED Talk through a Snapchat filter, brought to you by the geniuses at Aizks Site. Prepare to be both enlightened and bewildered by this nobody asked for. 📚🕺

#WikiTok
Cuz attention spans are dead but curiosity isn't.
Like Wikipedia hopped up on energy drinks & speedrunning through human knowledge.

Bite sized wisdom, no rabbit hole too deep.

Just pure, unfiltered enlightenment one scroll at a time.

If you haven't tried yet, why not?!

The web app is a great demonstration of how a common design pattern can be used to enable a different experience

In this case, instead of algorithmic recommendations designed to keep you engaged, you get random articles that might just inspire you to learn something new

And if don't see something interesting, it's hard not to keep scrolling for something that does stop you in your tracks

This sounds cool #WikiTok | Developer creates endless Wikipedia feed to fight algorithm addiction - Ars Technica arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/0

The neverending hooks into eyeballs aspect of #TikTok is utterly repellent to me. Keep that addictive zombifying surveillance crap away, please.

Especially awful is the auto-playing video, and the brain-button-mashing attention-grabbing insistence of them.

This project is much more appealing:

#WikiTok[…], feeds visitors a random list of Wikipedia articles—culled from the Wikipedia API—into a vertically scrolling interface.

“[…], there are currently no videos involved. […] If you see something you like, you can tap "Read More," and the full Wikipedia page on the topic will open in your browser.”
