Given the criticism of Fandom, why not use a Piped link instead of YT? It's like criticizing YT on YT.

I don't seem to run into a lot of Hollow Knight fans around here yet so I popped over to the HK community on that other website. Confirm: this video is one of the top trending on YouTube today lol. I figured, mossbag is...shall we say a very well-known figure in the community, if you're not in the know.

I absolutely still rely on the wiki for HK shit I can't remember like boss HP scaling and where tf was that last item I need for that one upgrade god dammit?? Glad to see them move to somewhere independent. Will donate.

Who knows of a good Final Fantasy wiki?

I used to have the app, but that was ad galore. Now when I browse it, usually for some book series, with firefox and some ad blockers, it's perfectly fine to read and browse. So I don't really get the hate, but that might be because I don't usually browse it for new content, but as a reference for finished series, like the wheel of time.

I wish I could, but I like browsing Logopedia which is hosting on Fandom and has announced no plans to leave the site. If they did, I'd completely abandon that place and block everything that has to do with them.

And no, it's not easy to migrate a database of hundreds of thousands of logos to another wikifarm, especially if new stuff arrives all the time.

Saw this yesterday. Great video that informed me on something I was completely oblivious to. Fuck fandom

I only use it for WoWpedia, because it has a lot of information from years ago. I still remember when they added so many unnecessary interface elements and the website became slower. Luckily, I found https://userstyles.world/style/5722/clean-fandom-wiki, which made it usable again.

The wow wiki has recently moved to wiki gg and they ported everything over so definitely Check it out!
