  • The easiest way by far is downloading an existing dump from kiwix

    Per example wikipedia_en_all_nopic_2024-06.zim is only 54GB since it only contains text. Then via docker you could use this compose file where you have your .zim files in the wikis volume:

    services:
      kiwix:
        image: ghcr.io/kiwix/kiwix-serve
        container_name: kiwix_app
        command: '*'
        ports:
          - '8080:8080'
        volumes:
          - "/wikis:/data"
        restart: always
    

    Theorically you can actually one of the wikipedia database dumps with mediawiki but I don’t known of any easy plug and play guide








  • You only receive content updates for the communities your local users are subscribed.

    That being said federation has been struggling significantly since this past reddit exodus and there’s time where outages of any kind might have made you lose federated content. I don’t think is possible to “catch-up” all of what you have lost.

    You can however per example search a port url of a remote instance to force it federate.
