Weird take when wikidata has 117% year-over-year page view growth.

The audience is quite different, and it may very well not be useful to you, and that is ok, but wikidata clearly has an audience and seems to be on an upswing. Its certainly doing better than pretty much all the other sister projects.

As an aside, politically wikidata is really WM-DE's baby, so its really more them doubling down and WMF along for the ride, but of course its all very intertwined.

ok. Maybe I am not the target audience.

It’s definitely not the least useful of the wiki projects - that award definitely goes to WikiNews - but at least WikiNews is not intertwined with everything on wikipedia.

Lol, as someone who used to be involved with wikinews, can't say i disagree. However i also never really understood the point of wikispecies either.
