Wikipedia is starting to use Jimmy Wales' photo again in their regular "please donate to us we are all so poor" messaging again.

This is after fellow cofounder Larry Sanger got banned recently and the Wiki Workers United dispute is still ongoing.

I don't know what they aim to achieve, they are just going to make them appear more egotistical. Most of Wikipedia's content is done by people who do it for free and don't see a penny of Wiki's massive war chest. They don't mention either that they get paid lots of money by AI companies with Wikimedia Enterprise to have dedicated scraping servers.

I like how it cost like ~$42/mo. to keep the site up and running, but he needs to collect $600mil/yr. every year.

I'm pretty glad they're dying.
The jannies there are actual tankie communists.
They deserve far more than just their website dying.

Jimmy Wales runs the predatory shithole Fandom.
Wikipedia is good but it shouldn’t have to depend on the profits from a garbage business to survive

it's not millions of dollars either to host 20GB of text
