check it out at ^^

now available as an app!

can you do the opposite and make a version of twitter than has to be clicked though with no scrolling

sure, here you go ^^

@gwinxd Does that come with anti blue check replies? I always associate blue checks with AI-generated content or blatant copy-paste, and that's so not humanity.

@gwinxd something like this?

@ivanauriga @gwinxd Youve just done everything huh whats the coolest/most unique one you’ve done?

@ivanauriga @gwinxd probably this (but realistically everything on

why did it remove the mesurements on the last sentence 😭😭

"It weighed an stood tall." truly a quote of all time

@notspecialcarol Does it pull from the simple English version or are you using an LLM to summarize or is that the real opening text?

@notspecialcarol It's the real opening text. I wrote my own logic for generating summaries by filtering out certain (wiki)text parts, but it's still the original text in that sense, no LLMs or other language processing.

genuinely not even joking if this was an app that I could follow my friends on and read the Wikipedia pages they thought were cool I would use this so much

it took about 10 minutes of scrolling to get to a point where i'd be liking pretty much every article shown, i guess a simple algorithm like that can be better than some social media's

Possible with Grokipedia?

no and fuck off

Just be aware of two things - Wikipedia's math rendering system is highly complicated - There is no easy way to filter NSFW articles, however they're few and far between so you should be fine

Can you curate an algorithm where it learns what I want to learn about and expands on selected topics? Can you play [Six Degrees of Keanu Reeves] in it? Does it have a rabbit hole feature where you can track stops on your train of thought/discovery while building an evolving narrative? This is seriously a cool and more accessible way to browse wikipedia and I love it.

i already doomscroll wikipedia and it's called Special:RecentChanges and Special:NewPagesFeed

i have an idea for a new kind of wikipedia race, where you start from a fresh algorithm of xikipedia and choose which posts to like in order to get closer to your article (typical wikipedia race is getting to a specific article just using links from a starting point)

what track is this? sounds awesome

@horizonradars it's an unreal tournament track, i'll dig up the link tomorrow unless someone gets ahead of me

Okayyyyyy

Insane how much I'd love an app like this. Any plans (if not already implemented) to include Wiktionary? For selected languages (like the selected topics). Could also implement Wikisource to read books. Doomscroll topics while learning new words.

@wgj4kpilled damn

You fool. Nay, you monster. You have doomed us all.

It full loaded and then the website refreshed for some reason and I have to wait for it to load again 😭

ah yes the duality of man

Can it be an app?

intelligent brain rot

that's just infoslop, you only like it because it's informative

Can you please release this as an app I can pay for

Good job 😉

thank you

before doomscrolling, we had the Wiki Walk

i’ve been doomscrolling wikipedia the old fashioned way

Yeah bro still you’re not gonna read all those words

i love this

Holy shit I love this so much, I’m going to completely replace scrolling reels with this and see what I can learn.

why does it take to 40MB to be loaded?

because it downloads everything in the beginning so that it can be processed locally and privately - you can disconnect from the internet after the page has loaded and the only thing that won't work is the images

yeah but the ux-wise I hoped it loaded immediately and scrolled; breaks the continuity especially coming from x

it would load pretty fast if it wasn't for the fact that this tweet hit like half a million views within the first 4 hours

This is gonna be for turbospergs what a slot machine is for Boomers, you concocted a new drug

OH MY GOD

doomscrolling wikipedia feels like the most 2026 thing ever. we've optimized knowledge consumption for maximum anxiety. what's next, tiktok-style news briefs?

I’m legit hooked to this holy shit

Do you think you will ever make it into a full fledged app?
