Vampire Survivors devs launch official wiki "free of ads, banners, and all of the junk that gets in your way"

We did the same for The Talos Principle Wiki.
The community is hosting its own MediaWiki rather than rely on Fandom.

You might like the indie wiki buddy extension, it can automatically redirect you to a independent wiki when you go to fandom (if there is one), remove fandom search results, and redirect you to a 'breeze wiki' page if there's no fandom alternative
(Breeze wiki is an alternative frontend for fandom, much like invidious for YouTube. It guts all the ads and banners and garbage, and gives you a much simpler wiki page)
If you browse a lot on mobile and cannot install extensions, all you have to do is replace the "fandom" in the fandom wiki URL with "antifandom"

Another step was made to reclaim the free internet! I bought dlc inside the game and I'm glad I did.

Based dev. Fuck fextralife and fandom
Wat?! Fandom has ads?! Never saw these. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Same thing happened with minecraft.wiki too, people finally got fed up with fandom's bullshit
Same with doomwiki.org and a bunch of others.

Well, GGG hosts their community wikis since years too...

osrs.wiki lets just list them all
-
Same with the Terraria wiki. Afaik the fandom wiki is mostly abandoned and people moved to the much better gg wiki.
The Oxygen Not Included wiki made the jump a few years ago and the gg wiki seems to finally be better referenced

Very nice to see. Might start playing again to 100% it (yet again) now that there's an actual useful wiki for it. Always love to see pure media wiki usage. I wish we could just scrub Fandom's one now.

The Monster Hunter community just did the same: https://monsterhunterwiki.org/wiki/Main_Page
Folks finally got tired of the several horrible options and did it themselves. There’s also a discord for coordinating contributions if so inclined.

fextralife
Sometimes it feels like fextralife is filled only with stub articles.
me: "Hmm, I wonder about [a thing] in [a game]"
fextralife's entire article: "[A thing] is a thing in [a game]"
brilliant, thank you.

Honorary mention of Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages, which existed as a fan documentation hub since the mid 90s.

Good to see we're finally fighting back against Fandom

Best thing that happened to path of exile too, the devs provide the wiki platform for the community
Very based
The Guild Wars 2 (and 1) wiki is also hosted directly by the devs. It's even accessible via chat command.
-
shouldnt this be built in the game anyway?
It's still a wiki, I.e. user/community written content.

Fandom is icky. A few years ago, my mom was getting scammed by some conspiracy guy from LinkedIn who offered her a “job.”
These dudes set up their own fandom wiki to try to make their bullshit seem real. I can’t remember the name of the people involved but one guy was claiming that he was owed 300 trillion dollars by the government. (Can’t remember the exact number but it was astronomically high. More money than exists kinda high)

Ah, perfect, thank you. I was particularly interested because I just recently dabbled with mediawiki and ended up going with dokuwiki.
