Show HN: Linki, the Distributed Wiki (opens in new tab)

But."A tool to create distributed wikis" is a noble quest but you are setting out alone like this. Just one dude's opinion, but you can't go it alone like this, IMO.

It's all about protocols. Any given project has basically no chance of success, unless something (everything everywhere) goes exceptionally well. But if you can create a protocol, where other people are also excited and screwing around & expanding the pie, then you have a real chance.

Making this a project bigger than itself is a core challenge of almost all ambitious distributed systems efforts. Creating conditions to beget people who would compete against you, "competitive compatibity", is IMO at least as important as your source code & user interface. Again, just one random dudes attitude. But I see a big effort to sell the user experience here & it looks neat, but as an engineer I want to know who & why's of it all, want to know it's an open book I could keep taking further.

Building a wiki front end over a git backend seems like a simple thing that might accomplish that.
