In a nutshell:
I chose “not much”. I originally trusted them alot, but later I learnt about the internal procedures and behavioural patterns of people who govern Wikipedia.
Wikipedia can be useful for articles regarding technology, but their administration and some of their absur policies (WP:G5,WP:G8, WP:G13) act against their purpose.
They also have a policy called WP:IAR that deceives users into thinking they are allowed to ignore rules in favour of making Wikipedia better. Although that's logically productive, it's a trap. They will still sanction the user.
And some of their administrators without any consequences.
There is much to say, but that would probably take about an hour to write. That's the summary.
