I understand, intellectually, that some people might love this.
To me, this is on the same level as offering to set my building materials on fire before I build my house. I can't imagine any way this could make things better.

...but why
Some people have an addiction to scrolling, thanks to skinner boxes being implemented in all the major social media sites and online marketplaces.
This app manages to fill the niche of a skinner box, with educational content rather than algotrash. This allows people to reclaim their scrolling sessions and reconditoon away from the endless dopamine dripfeed into a more healthy relationship with social media and the internet at large.

This reminds me of that one company that turned books into text messenger conversations.
Whatevs. If it gets people who have their attention spans ruined by the internet to learn more things and experience more forms of media I'm game.

I have fdroid and it tells me the link is broken. Maybe it's a repo I don't have
Works for me too. I think it's your config that's broken (or something is messing with your connection).

I enjoyed that. I could go to the Wikipedia front page and click a random article, but (for me) flicking quickly between some topics until being interested in an ancient Mayan aristocrat and reading about her, is a content delivery service that works for me.
I get why folks might hate it, or not need it, but I often look to my phone as a randomising information delivery system. I can always look into stuff I'm interested in, but I need the chance of being introduced to topics that would never occur to me. Journalism and social media can provide a route to that, but there's something to be said for scrolling through topics until I find something that intrigues me, instead of preferencing whatever promotes engagement on Lemmy (or wherever).

I'm a person that saw this and thought "YES!".
It's a way to make my mindless scrolling a little bit less mindless. It's not a Wikipedia alternative it's a tiktok alternative (I don't use tiktok, but I understand why people do, my attention span is also shattered). Obviously it's not going to replace looking things up on Wikipedia, and I love exploring links in Wikipedia articles, but you don't know what you don't know so this seems like a good way to learn about things you didn't know you were interested in.

It's an interesting idea. Could be a way to catch interest and education.

Me too. It says "app not found". I can't find it either if I search directly into F-Droid.
By the way, I've enabled all anti-features.

I fixed it by enabling the setting to show apps not compatible with my device

Wow this is neat! It's making Wikipedia more engaging, something I could actually read more regularly.

Thanks... I think
