Here's hoping they migrate to wiki.gg as Terraria's contributors have a while ago.

please, fandom is one of the worst sites on the internet

When the old school RuneScape wiki moved to a self hosted solution it was night and day the quality difference. I’d argue that OSRS (and probably regular RS) have some of the best wikis in gaming.

Path of Exile did the same thing, going from fandom to https://poewiki.net/. And thank god they did, fuck fandom

Stardew Valley did the right thing by self hosting a wiki, makes it both official and independent

Lol, they moved out from Reddit and now they moved out from Fandom.

But their solution could be as simple as make their own wiki.

Imagine if we already had all the tools needed, and all that's missing is a bit of hosting and a bit of moderation. If only there was a company with some extra cash behind this… haha.

But it's seriously time people retake some kind of control over their online activity. All these "services" looking at every occasion to screw their user is getting annoying.

Going to Fandom is like visiting a annoying dying person because they hold the hidden information.
