Pornhub
Can’t argue with that.
There are numerous Pornhub alternatives. There isn’t one that’s even close to Wikipedia.

I would say youtube. Obviously an enormous amount of crap, but also an absolute treasure trove.

Nothing. Twitter was actually pretty important and now it’s a right-wing mouthpiece.
The best part of this is that Wikipedia is partisan for the sole reason it’s true.
this mf needs to keep making official statements about money. he didn’t specify for how long. they could change it to dickipedia for one day and put up a banner thanking elon for the donation to human knowledge then obviously sue him because he won’t want to pay

Hey let’s pick a fight with Wikipedia. After that, we’ll go after motherhood and apple pie. I respect the hustle, but learn how to take a brush back pitch. Big “Never back down, especially when you’re wrong!” energy.

If he could buy it, he’d try to change it to X-pedia, which has absolutely no chance of being a problem.

People thought this guy was a genius. lol.
If you read the comments it’s for real. Tons of Putin-bots and RW choads HATE Wikipedia. They’re well into the “sneer at others for being so naive to think wikipedia isn’t just as biased as theblaze.com” phase.
The sneer is one of the most powerful propaganda tools they have. No one wants to be the sucker in the room.
The good news is I bet Elon gave wikimedia a massive boost in donations.

These usage numbers are actually not that high? You could run this in AWS for a couple million a year.
He understands exactly how much Wikipedia costs to operate. What he deeply hates is any symbol of success of modern liberal society.
