Hey HN,<p>For the past 8 months I've been working on BluntBio, a simple wiki platform that focuses on fun facts[0] rather than lengthy articles[1].<p>The project naively started out as "Linktree with fun facts" but evolved into something more interesting when collaborative pages and structured data began trickling in. This effectively pivoted the project from "link-in-bio tool" to "weird wiki platform" which I'm very happy about :P<p>Some differences between BluntBio and traditional wikis:<p>- Community contributions are done through votes instead of overriding edits (i.e. for each fun fact the highest voted answer gets shown)<p>- You can build a personal page[2] that's only editable by you (I still think it's fun to answer your own fun facts so I kept this from the original link-in-bio idea)<p>- Explore pages have simple bar charts that show popular fun fact answers[3]<p>- Way more emojis (probably too many)<p>There are also some limitations in place to help prevent abuse:<p>- New pages can only be created for a predefined set of topics<p>- When creating a page, users can only input a URL from a verified source. All page metadata is then automatically populated from this URL, eliminating the need for extra manual input<p>- All fun facts are only answerable with structured select inputs rather than unstructured text ones<p>- No user-uploaded images<p>I know these aren't perfect solutions and might even be <i>too</i> limiting, but given my limited bandwidth as a solo dev, I've settled on this for now. In the meanwhile, I'll continue adding topics to expand the possible pool of pages as I figure out better ways to handle user-generated content.<p>I've also set up a demo page where you can try things out without signing up[4].<p>Any feedback is appreciated. Be blunt!
