I’d like to gauge interest for a nice solarpunk wiki - an easily searchable repository of knowledge for everything solarpunk. While a lemmy instance is great to share articles, links, meet like-minded folk, give quick tech advice, there is a lot of useful slrpnk knowledge worth collecting in a more systematic manner. Are we enough active people here to get that started yet? It might be early at this point, as @poVoq@slrpnk.net mentioned in a comment elsewhere, but as a wiki fan I’ll put that out here. Or are there other wikis out there worth supporting instead?
Account integration is IMHO necessary. Both to keep the administrative overhead small and because moving accounts to a different system later on is much more difficult that setting it up correctly from the start.
To add a wrinkle to this, would account integration only work with slrpnk.net users or would there be a way for others to contribute?
Yeah, what I have in mind right now would be only for slrpnk.net accounts (direct database access). Maybe one could also allow other sign-up methods, but it quickly becomes a spam issue and in general just causes more work for all people involved.
Ideally Lemmy would support being an Oauth2 provider (Like Mastodon) so that you could link multiple Lemmy instances for accounts, but I think support for that is a long way off.
