Developer creates endless Wikipedia feed to fight algorithm addiction
-
I would disagree on the "slightly more informative" part.
I have used it and in my opinion, it's "highly informative and educational". -
It's app based. I found it on Google Play.
-
I think it's more "Butt as an alternative to algorithms" which I fully agree with. Butts are better than algorithms

I have a habit of grabbing my phone and scrolling shorts if im just going to be free for less than 10mins because I don't have time to watch something longer or read a chapter of a book. If there was an app like this that actually had an algorithm so I could instead scroll wikipedia and learn something interesting I think that it would at least help scratch the itch and not make short form video content my go to.

Also just getting more word a day is great for your vocabulary. Ive been reading a lot more lately and have noticed that the more I read even relatively simple books that my vocabulary has vastly expanded even in everyday life. Im much less often left searching for a word because I have likely seen it more recently.

You are a Sadist Lmfao

Depends on the butt, I've seen some nice algorithms.
-
Oh dear!

Apparently it doesn't use a personalised algorithm. So I'd say the first one.
-
Right, but in the context of social media feeds, "algorithm" always refers to an algorithm for personalised content.

I love this. ICBM address is a very clever joke.
-
Thank you for this. Very interesting read about hacker speak.

At least on android I was able to just add a link to the home screen in Firefox.

I like this idea.
I don’t know if I will do anything with it, but I would like to create something like this. Find it hard to develop when I’m not in work, as it feels like work.

they have this already, at least on the app version
