These are all good examples of how we can’t take a “one size fits all”
approach when thinking about editing policies and features. The study of
the effects of no IP editing strongly reiterated this conclusion based on
the data:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IP_Editing:_Privacy_Enhancement_and_Abuse_Mitigation/IP_Editing_Restriction_Study/Portuguese_Wikipedia

Portuguese Wikipedia is largely dominated by Brazilians. Brazil has some of
the highest social media use per capital in the world, so part of the
underlying reality is that PT Wikipedia users are probably unusually
willing to sign up for new services. This probably explains why in
Portuguese making people sign up didn’t result in fewer unreverted edits,
whereas when we tried even *suggesting* IP editors should sign up in other
wikis, it didn’t work:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Value_of_IP_Editing#Past_trials_of_this_idea_were_damaging

For starting a new general knowledge wiki, it’s a terrible idea to require
registration if you want to actually grow.

There are Wikis that have "succeeded" with IP editing turned off with
some being WikEM and Eyewiki

Additionally PT Wikipedia banned IP editing in 2020

Yesterday they had less than a hundred edits from just 6 individuals. The
English language Wikipedia had around 150,000 edits. Justapedia needs a
much bigger community for it to become more than a mirror.

They've switched off IP editing, one of the mistakes citizendium made, so
unless they relaunch themselves as the home of alternative medicine and
alternative facts, I agree with Galder, they are unlikely to succeed.

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.

Aside from the whole idea of a neutrality policy that thinks Wikipedia
wasn't neutral on either Climate Change or Covid19, and a board that is 60%
founders votes rather than the 9% of the WMF. Justapedia doesn't want
breaking news of anything that has happened in the last 7 days.
https://justapedia.org/wiki/Justapedia:Justapedia_Foundation#About

My prediction is that if the site does get any traction, and there are
millions of antivaxxers and climate change deniers who might well prefer it
to Wikipedia, the 7 day thing will bite them hard.

When famous people die, Wikipedia gets extra visitors to those pages. If
Justapedia had been around at the time of Michael Jackson's death, or of
Osama Bin Laden's, this policy alone would have led to conflict, or been
quickly abandoned. Here in the UK there will be a General Election in the
next 17 months, a  large number of Wikipedia articles will be updated very
quickly with the results, probably including a new Prime minister.  If
Justapedia is still around for the next UK General Election, and if it has
taken even 1% of Wikipedia's audience and community, then either this
policy will be abandoned or the people who enforce it will have to revert
loads of edits by newbies. Justapedia may not want "thought police" and may
aspire to be collegial  "The Justapedia Foundation firmly believes in
maintaining a collegial environment for our volunteers"
https://justapedia.org/wiki/Justapedia:Justapedia_Foundation#Community but
this policy alone will make them a non collegial place, even if they
succeed in recruiting a community of people who share their views on
Climate Change and Covid19.

I'm aware that there are deep tensions within our community, and not just
between the on and off wiki components. I wasn't surprised to see a new
fork come forth, and if the intent, remit and design  had been different
then I might well have created an account there and at the least had a foot
in both camps. As it is, I can't see Justapedia becoming something I would
like to donate my time to. But then I doubt they'd want me anyway
given that I accept the science on Climate Change and Covid19..

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"
