1·1 month agoThere is already the Conservapedia doing the same thing. […]
Interestingly, the site is timing out for me right now [1], but I’ve been able to find some interesting archived information: for example, they have a page titled “Conservapedia:How Conservapedia Differs from Wikipedia” [2]. To say the least, I take issue with some of their rationale.

Do you have a source for that? From what I’ve been able to find on the official [1] Trump store, they all stated that they are made in America [2].

[…]There will be alteration.[…]
I’m not claiming that there wouldn’t be some form of alteration — I’m just seeking the minimum amount of alterations as is pragmatically possible (ie avoiding something to this extent [1]).

41·3 months agoTikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill [1.1]
The title feels misinformative to me given, the following from the article:
[…] Trump insiders claim to be zeroing in on a deal that would sell 80% of TikTok’s U.S. assets to […] [1.2]
To me, the title infers that TikTok is being sold with certainty, whereas the content of the article sates that a deal has yet to even be reached.

Do you mind referencing some of the exceptions that you have in mind to the aforementioned rule?
I just try to keep the mnemonic “I before E except after C” [1] in my brain.

Are you okay with a self-hosted solution? If so, you could, for example, self-host FreshRSS [1], and then use it to scrape a feed using XPath [2]. I can elaborate further on the method if you are interested.
