Take the money then we would just call it the site formerly known as wikipedia. Similar to how x is simply formerly known as twitter.

MODERATORS
Im assuming this is just more effort by him working for Russian interests. Wikipedia being too credible for the war in Ukraine.
Nonprofit organizations that moderate a website should stay nonprofit, because at least they're not prone to making crappy business decisions that'll end up hurting them in the long term.
Wikipedia should counter-offer X changes its name to SeX for >= amount. Jimbo can even show Musk how to recruit and retain far more effective and cost-effective and robust moderation culture like the GOAT they are.
Is there anything that stops Elon Musk from buying Lemmy or Mastadon? Even if everyone were to migrate over to the Fediverse, what stops these websites from being bought as well?
