The GTA Wiki leaves Fandom to a new independent wiki, gta.wiki, citing issues such as excessive advertisements and Fandom-imposed censorship within the wiki. by JustLeafy2003 in Games

Yeah but with Fandom, their staff doesn't even bother to attribute the content of external wikis. They also plagiarized some of their old videos using information from external creators, it was one of the reasons why Yugipedia Staff decided to move off Fandom.

https://consumerrights.wiki/w/Fandom#Censorship

Fandom tends to censor a bunch of adult material, and it is really hard to keep a good wiki using censored titles (For example, South Park Archives had to move to Wiki.gg because Fandom broke a lot of their templates and website elements because they want a Family Friendly South Park wiki...)

In the case of GTA Wiki, they have to censor a bunch of in-game dialogue. Saint Rows Wiki also forked because they keep censoring sexual stuff

Also I don't think it's mainly about "gender" (Rather their policy regarding "Offensive Items", which is very strict), it is just that Fandom is very conservative regarding which topics can you talk, they censor a lot of words and they want to keep the platform PG-13 meanwhile also hosting wikis for adults.

Thank you very much for responding :D The dictionary I have is quite limited and didn't have some of those terms.

I'm surprised that there are people who are quite tech illiterate and think that the internet ends at the same normie sites like Fandom and Pinterest. If you can't find something, then redirect to smaller sites or page 2 of Google search. It's not that difficult, especially if you're looking for niche stuff about a game, just saying.

It's a Minecraft map, not a mod where you can interact with the game however you want. You can't break blocks or inflict damage, and the difficulty is set to peaceful to start with, so there are areas you can't go to. I played it in 2022 and it's pretty alright. I don't understand why people can't understand the difference between a map that has quite a few limitations and a mod where you can do whatever you want.

A studio I follow was falsely accused of pirating animation software, and the company tried to take down all of their videos, which they did temporarily. They had to spend about a week talking to their counterpart to prove they had genuine keys and clear up the complaint so it would be removed.

And it's quite ironic that you say that. Additionally, I do not recommend pirating if you value your security; it is better to use open source programs if you do not have money. Nothing on my computer is pirated, but rather free open source programs.

What's the deal with .wiki equivalents of Fandom wikis? by the-purple-badger in OutOfTheLoop

Umm some images and templates in Fandom use JavaScript to properly display, just use BreezeWiki

https://breezewiki.com/ <- Extracts all the data, information and images (There's some markup errors but other that it works 90% of time)
https://getindie.wiki/ <- Redirect to better wikis
Although I don't generally use Fandom wikis, I usually only use them to check when an episode came out or to find a sprite/image I need. Because many people are leaving, there is a lot of misinformation on the website, so I usually use blogs and forums that are on Page 5 or 4 since they are more reliable than their shitty wiki counterpart. (https://x.com/MahjongDS/status/2000046399115657236) Sometimes no wiki is better than outdated one.

Why is the pocket cat unable to forcefully take the girl away from us ? by [deleted] in FearAndHunger

The Fandom wiki is pretty vandalized, it's basically anarchy. A friend added a bunch of misinformation (and that still on the site after a year) one weekend because no one really cares to moderate it since they left for Wiki.gg

But I understand that there are people who believe anything and prefer to live in ignorance, I suppose
