Wikipedia earned $184M from donations, the servers cost less than $5M

Can we have a look at X's finances too and have an opinion on wether people should give them money?
s1mplicissimus•2mo ago
okay commentless downvotes I assume it's the grokbots

Wikipedia is supremely useful. Twitter is a dumpster fire no one needs. I'll continue to throw a few bucks to Wiki next year, thanks.
jdboyd•2mo ago
Wikipedia IS supremely useful! However, when they are begging for just $2.75 with big banners while receiving that much is a bit frustrating, and while I won't say they can't do what they want, I do feel irritated, and when I'm reminded how much they get, it makes me less likely to donate because of that.
tombot•2mo ago
I don’t feel irritated, I feel pleased I am supporting the web I want to see.
triceratops•2mo ago
I wish they would ringfence the money needed to run Wikipedia's service in perpetuity. Some kind of trust fund that throws off enough income from investments to fund just the servers and a couple employees to maintain them. About $200m should be more than enough.

I don't know if they've done that already. But it means they can be around forever, no matter what foolishness they get up to with the remainder of their donations.

icandoit•2mo ago
Why is Larry Sanger trying to sabotage Wikipedia?

If Wikipedia can resist the urge to enshittify longer than anyone else, they've earned it.

tombot•2mo ago
I like supporting Wikipedia, I’m glad they raised plenty of money
pestatije•2mo ago
twitter should have learned this lesson: its not the cost of running it, but the value it offers
pfych•2mo ago
I don't know why I ever bother scrolling down when opening a twitter thread... Some of those comments are crazy to read.

Personally I think while wikipedia does rake in an extremely large amount of money via donations, they provide an amazing platform and haven't felt the need to make it shitty with new features - or "keep up with market trends". I'm happy for it to stay this way.
