I enjoyed that. I could go to the Wikipedia front page and click a random article, but (for me) flicking quickly between some topics until being interested in an ancient Mayan aristocrat and reading about her, is a content delivery service that works for me.

I get why folks might hate it, or not need it, but I often look to my phone as a randomising information delivery system. I can always look into stuff I’m interested in, but I need the chance of being introduced to topics that would never occur to me. Journalism and social media can provide a route to that, but there’s something to be said for scrolling through topics until I find something that intrigues me, instead of preferencing whatever promotes engagement on Lemmy (or wherever).
