Any comrades know anything about creating an easily searchable database to make it easier to respond when folks bring up clear misinformation? I get that wikipedia and prolewiki are things, as well as wonderful comments by other comrades, but they aren't too easy to query or search through for specific information.
There isn't a granularity to the searches which makes it difficult to find relevant info quickly when searching. SQL and the like are convenient, and something like Wikibase allows for annotation of data, are there any other tools or methods anyone knows about?
Ah, the cards are a good idea. If I could ask about your experiences to get a better idea of a potential solution:
Is searching through lemmy/hexbear preferable due to the interface, or how the information is presented?
Did you go to hexbear first due to your familiarity with it or because it was what first came to mind?
Do you usually look for this info on your phone?
Is some info good but you'd have to reformat it so you don't end up using it?
Do you ever put stuff that's good in your own words?
Do you find the formatting (headings, subheadings, bold, etc.) to be helpful in navigating and finding the stuff you are looking for when you have like a huge effortpost?

I just keep extensive notes and collect quotes, comments, and articles to refer back to
it's not ideal, I agree with you we need some kind of database with a powerful search function
and yeah, like Egon I also search hexbear when I need to respond to someone
If google wasn't ad-ridden and folks weren't focused on SEO marketing... :(
