A website I created devoted to all the “facts” that have been changed or proven false since you graduated high school. User submissions welcome.

Zero links to resources or sources backing up their claims. What a fucking joke.

"Trust me bro"

Ehh, sites been up for 24 hours so its still a WIP. Ill figure all that out as time goes on

Oh good, more unverified slop.

You could do better and make something credible.

OP: "Hey, check out my website idea! It's still a work in progress, but let me know what you think!"

You: "If it's not 100% perfect with verifiable sources for every single fact ever then you suck and should feel bad until I'm happy"

I'm not expecting perfection - citing your sources should be a basic element of the initial dataset.

Currently the site is on par with "some guy at the pub said"

You have the Internet at your fingertips. And most had at least a source you could fucking Google.

[–] stom@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

None of them cited a single source, which was precisely my point.
