What is Ibis Wiki?

Ibis is a federated encyclopedia which uses the ActivityPub protocol, just like Mastodon or Lemmy. Users can create, browse, edit articles and use many other features. If you want to start a wiki for a TV series, a video game, or an open source project, then Ibis is for you! You can register on an existing instance or install it on your own server. Then you can start editing on the topic of your choice, and connect to other Ibis instances for different topics. Federation ensures that articles get mirrored across many servers, and can be read even if the original instance goes down. Ibis is fully open source to make future enshittification impossible.

Features

  • Fully functional wiki with article creation, reading, editing and edit history
  • Conflict handling in case of concurrent edits
  • Articles have discussion page with nested comments
  • Fully federated, all actions work locally as well as with remote Ibis instances
  • Simple installation, only a single binary or Docker image with Postgres database
  • Snappy editor with live preview and Markdown support
  • Various Markdown extensions like LaTeX, table of contents, footnotes, spoilers
  • Dark mode, so that you can write articles from the beach or from your basement
  • Explore page to discover interesting articles
  • Fast user interface with server-side rendering based on WebAssembly
  • Notification system to get notified about new articles, edits, and comments
  • In the future Ibis will be fully federated with Mastodon, Lemmy and other Fediverse platforms
