The logo is quite funny. According to that Information + Disinformation = Facts. It might
be that they don't know what a Venn diagram is, or simply that they actually think
that.
Don't worry, this is just one more project that will fall into oblivion.

The only specific and non-contradictory complaints about Wikipedia
bias I can find on
https://justapedia.org/wiki/Justapedia:Justapedia_Foundation are
climate change and COVID-19, which are areas in which I think
Wikipedia excels. The complaints about politics go in both directions.
Perhaps Atsme can clarify?

It's laughable, as the logo [1] that (inadvertently,?) shows
"disinformation" and "lies" being given equal weight with
"information" in determining "truth" suggests.
But this [2] hints at the darker underbelly:
"The Editorial Review Board (ERB) [...] will make binding decisions regarding the
retention and rejection of article content, as well as serve to resolve content disputes,
and notability issues... ERB members are required to have a high level, native
understanding of written English"
Besides, there are alarming rumors I saw in Y
Combinator [...]
Oh, please. Do better than that.
