Year in Review.

Including two popes, the Prince of Darkness, and MrBeast.

Wikipedia will mark its 25th anniversary on January 15, 2026. No one could have predicted 25 years ago that Wikipedia would grow into the backbone of knowledge on the internet it is today—powering search engines, voice assistants, and generative AI tools.

Today, nearly 250,000 volunteers generously give their time and energy to update Wikipedia, add citations, build consensus, and more. They keep knowledge human. In 2025, people spent an estimated 2.4 billion hours reading English Wikipedia articles, according to data from the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit that operates Wikipedia and other Wikimedia free knowledge projects. The top 20 most-read English Wikipedia articles of 2025 outlined below focus on politics, popular culture, and loss.

In all seriousness, most communities feel buggy on my instance(I need to find them manually on my instance) and some moderators on Lemmy seem to get a hit of dopamine when they remove any post or comment on their community.

My answer to all of this is that I just use the shitpost community for everything.

That solution seems super perfect for me.

    I heared that Catbox is struggling financially.

    I use it from time to time, but I am not fully dependent on it. Because if it shut down at any time, all the memes, photos and videos becomes instantly lost media.

    You might feel like catbox will stay here forever, but looking at my internet experience, nothing stays forever.
