That seems like an interesting idea. But even if it dosen’t look like Wikipedia I don’t really like the “look and feel” of MediaWiki for what I want it to be.
But posting it on a private lemmy instance seems like a really nice thing. As noted in another comment that is probably the route I will go for now.
That is actually interesting to know. Could you maybe link a blog that is using the plugin so I can see how it looks both on the Wordpress page and on Mastodon?
What I realized is what I really would like is for the blog to present itself to lemmy as a community and each blog post as a post in lemmy. So everyone that has a lemmy account somewhere could comment it and follow the blog just like a community on an instance. But I don’t think there is a plugin currently available like that. So maybe the best I can do right now is what @Kangie@lemmy.srcfiles.zip is doing and posting the blog entry as a lemmy post aswell.
No, but I will check it out now!

I’m actually already using mediawiki for my own notes, but the quality I write down for myself is not as good as I want to publish. 🙈
I also don’t find the style of mediawiki that nice and was specifically looking for something different that makes things look a bit more polished just from the styling itself.
But I suppose it would also have it’s benefits using a software I’m already familiar with. 🤔
It’s a really hard thing to decide and I’m not sure what the right thing to do is.
I feel like if the main goal is to make this instance as good as possible for local users making many small specific communities would be best.
But form how I understand lemmy that would also make it more annoying for people from other instances to get all programming related topics from here if they don’t want to leave their home instance. That would also include people that run their own private instances.
Although that my second point could be addressed if lemmy adds a “all” feed so that one could subscribe to all communities of an instance or untill that is available a automatic repost bot could be set up to collect all posts on an instance into one feed.
But I don’t really know what the best way would be just writing down my thoughts on the subject. I’m sure whatever way you go lemmy users will find a way to enjoy this instance and community!
I would start out allowing mostly everything programming related and only creating more specific communities once the posts for a specific topic start spamming this one.
All nice organization doesn’t help if the created communities are not used by anyone as the seem to small to be worth the bother. That’s at least how I think about it. Just leave it open for most posts until the need arises to split specific topics off.
+1 for programming.dev

I didn’t know that existed and now I love it and started up a docker container for it!
Thanks! :D
I almost deleted it but decided an edit would be more fun. I’m glad I didn’t delete it now 😊
