Developer Isaac Gemal launched WikiTok, a site for endless swiping through random Wikipedia article stubs, mimicking TikTok's format but without invasive algorithms. Aimed at combating algorithm addiction, WikiTok offers a non-tailored exploration of knowledge. Users can read articles without targeted content traps, capitalizing on the breadth of Wikipedia's information. The project began after a viral tweet, and the prototype was rapidly developed with AI assistance. Gemal's vision prioritizes a free, unmonetized experience, focusing on learning rather than algorithm-driven engagement.
