Some wild guesses in the comments, but generally higher than over on Twitter lol.
The actual answer is 800 unique visitors every day! Congratulations to @KrupskayaPraxis@lemmygrad.ml who came the closest at 700!
for some reason, hearing that prolewiki gets that many views every day fills me with hope that someday marxism will prevail.
i hope it continues to grow.
at the same time, i'm worried that once it starts getting like tens of thousands/hundreds of thousands of views
basically, deprogram trio levels of views, y'all would get feds knocking on your doors or feds trying to ban/snipe it down. i hope that y'all are prepared in case such a scenario happens, with how hostile they are against ideologies that improve the general wellbeing of everyone, not just a select few.Without saying too much, we have a few tricks up our sleeves
Idk how large the file size would be and if this would put an undue burden on the server, but couldn't we presumably download the contents beforehand and mirror them elsewhere in case that happens?
Also, maybe the internet archive would help with emergency preservation?
Having a torrent every so often, like wikipedia does, would be nice.
I support this. I have a home server running 24/7 with more than enough storage and wouldn't mind seeding some prolewiki torrents.
Hopefully it grows even more.
It's really nice to have a place to refer to when in doubt or to link others to, as although a lot of the Communist related topics in wikipedia are much bigger than the ProleWiki versions they tend to not have much, if anything, from an actual ML point of view on them.
Thanks! It's been growing steadily but the road is still long 💪
