This Web App Is TikTok for Reading Wikipedia ...Middle East

News by : (Live Hacker) -

Then I heard about WikiTok, which, as its name alludes to, is a web interface that combines TikTok and Wikipedia. Unlike traditional video-sharing platforms, WikiTok offers users a refreshing respite from the relentless algorithms that dominate our digital landscape. The web app delivers an article at random, with an engaging image filling the display. If something interests you, you can tap "Read More," and then the full Wikipedia article will pop up in another window. If it doesn't catch your fancy, you scroll up, and another article will randomly appear.

Over the next hour, I read about the Samsung Continuum Android phone, learned that Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce will also get Super Bowl rings, and viewed an architectural marvel in Denmark resembling the fjords that dot the country's landscape.

Adjusting to life without algorithms

Of course, not having content tailored to your interests takes some getting used to. I was concerned that with each click of "Read More," WikiTok was learning something about me. At one point during my scrolling session, I was convinced that there was a reason why I encountered more than one article on baseball teams and small towns in Arizona, the state I call home.

Gemal's creation appears to be exclusively web-based, but several apps that poorly mimic the feeling of being on WikiTok are already available. One even asks for your email address before letting you scroll, which seems suspect. Stick to the web browser version and enjoy your well-deserved break from algorithms.
