    Could you share what you did to achieve this? I’ve been planning on doing just that, and have it auto-update every week or so (keeping the previous versions archived, of course) by using kiwix-serve for a static ‘.zim’ file and maybe a cron job for the auto-update. But if you have a better solution, I’d love to know. The deployment I am planning is kind of convoluted to be honest.

      No, that’s exactly what I did, I’m running kiwix-serve, but I’m not going to bother updating it because I’m really worried about information degrading now that fascists are basically calling the shots on everything (and WP’s jackboot co-founder has a hard on for it). If I feel enough time has gone by to warrant an update I’ll just do it manually.

            I ended up using mediawiki instead of kiwix-serve. Left my proxmox grabbing the data and its at around 170,000 pages right now. I’m still going to be versioning to make sure I keep the most up to date data, but still have access to the previous versions, as well as getting new articles, and keeping any removed ones if it happens.
