Someone needs to make an extension to completely hide fandom from google search, maybe even straight up replace results with the new wiki

[ZeroPan]

As a very old Fandom Editor, I agree. I gave up editing for a few months now due to one thing; the ads. Like seriously, I just want to look at a single sentence yet the website shows me a billion ads right on my face.

[paulnovacek]

Worth mentioning that the new Wiki feels a lot like the old one pre-fandom. It's nostalgic yet modern.

[alex]

This is a problem with Pokemon too, bulbapedia and serebii are no longer the top results, and Google is doing that blurb thing for the fandom page specifically

[harsh_here]

Thanks for calling out fandom on how greedy they and spreading awareness that there is another wiki that appreciate communities' effort and is transparent on ads and stuff 🙏

Also that villan thing is from minecraft story mode lol

[DingusYi]

Honestly, I never realized just how bad Fandom was because I use an ad blocker. I’m not really gonna miss Fandom except for the mobile app and community aspect. The community is so useful if you’re stuck in a game or something.

I don't play Minecraft anymore but my son is often asking questions about things I never used much or things that are new to the game. So knowing what the new wiki site is called is helpful. I just wish the games I do play didn't have their wiki's on fandom.

[samanthot_]

Fandom is so terrible that not even using adblockers could make it less awful to use. (UBlock does have javascript blockers + other things though) Throughout all the years I've had to use it (back when it was still called wikia), it's always been a laggy, ad-infested mess. I'm so glad bigger wikis are starting to move away from it, cause it might inspire everyone else to move, too.

[gameo]

I think aside from obviously making things easier for readers and editors, I absolutely love the layout. It reminds me of the old Gamepedia wiki before it was bought out :)

[longbeing]

Bookmarking the new wiki should also help! Dead Cells left fandom a little while ago and that was one of their main suggestions on how to ensure the new wiki shows up before the old one in your search results.

[Luigicat]

It really sucks, what Wikia has become. Especially since a lot of my favorite wikis probably won't be moving away from there until the whole thing crashes and burns (and some are niche enough that even that would probably just be the end of them as a whole).

[obondostudios]

I love that he just nonchalantly mentions an enemy from Minecraft: Story Mode. very fond of that series, very fond. Plus i can't wait for it's re-releasedate in 2024

[torbergqvist]

The wiki having returned is so nostalgic to me. I used to read it so much back when I was new to Minecraft back in beta to look up new features such as clay and so.

Or optimal crop growing patterns,

[b.m.]

Thank goodness! My main annoyance with Fandom is the massive amount of ads, as well as a lot of lag. The site is impossible to use on a mobile device due to the lag.

[kmemz]

It's exactly like what Minecraft Wiki USED to be... And it was so much better back then. Despite not playing Minecraft very often, I'm so happy that the wiki is usable again.
I'm not even ralking about thestupid tier intrusive ads, I already used an adblocker from the start; it's the layout, the width adjusting with your browser, the tables actually being usable instead of cut off with an obtuse horizonral scroll system like they are on basically anything in modern Fandom wikis.
We need more wikis to migrate away from Fandom.

[capacitatedflux]

As someone who has edited Wikia (i refuse to call it Fandom) since 2008 i cannot stress this enough: stop using it. It's not the site it once was.

Sadly, Fandom pays out the ass for SEO preference and optimization so the newer, probably better options will never show up as a primary link. Word of mouth is really the only way you'll see the new wiki propagate.

[Hihi-pvqg]

I'm glad the community is taking the jump, just like the Terraria community has. One thing they have done is actually make an extension that automatically changes fandom links into the better wiki link, I'm hoping something like that could be made for the new Minecraft wiki.

[codeninja]

I think this is the third fandom I’m in that has migrated away from their Fandom wiki and had to deal with the SEO priority that Fandom gets. Fandom doesn’t make it easy to migrate, either… It’s a pretty clear example of enshittification, where platforms start good, then gradually get worse as they try to squeeze more money out of everyone. Luckily, enshittification tends to end with a company going too far and collapsing… let’s hope Fandom‘s death starts soon and we can move to a site that isn’t as enshittified.

1:44 wow! it is really cool to see animated kids shows talk about our history! 🤩🥰

[ghb]

I totally agree with you there. From my perspective, no ads on a webpage should:

-Hinder or outright prevent me from using or navigating a website. An interstitial ad (fullscreen ad that you must close to access the page)?, I would accept that if it is not used every time I click on a link. A banner ad? That's fine as long as it doesn't cover text with no way to close the ad, and not have text be split up into sentences with an ad between each, and not force me to scroll down dozens of screens or click on "next" 100s of times. If an ad shifts content on the page AFTER the page is done loading, that is unacceptable.

-Force/trick me and/or my browser to open a third-party website/page of any kind (such as a new tab or pop up/under window), just to use or navigate your site. This is _way_ off limits. One such site admitted this was deliberate was Mediafire*. On a download page, there is a text near the download button saying "The download button will start your download and show a message from our advertisers in a new window.". How the F-ck anyone at mediafire would think any user would accept this? No user, like me would EVER accept a site to do this, especially after experiencing tech support scams and any form of malvertisements just to download a file! Even without scams and malicious behavior from the ad, it feels awkward that a random website is opened. And that is after begging users to turn off their adblocker AND *promised no pop-ups* on their adblocker message.

Out of every websites I've experienced throughout my life, I would rank which type of website is the worse when it comes to advertisements:
3. News. Banners and videos everywhere. But often can still access the content at the very least.
2. Fandom sites. Enormous banners that shifts content downwards on the page post-page-loading. Such a hassle to read text when this occurs.
1. "Sail the high seas"/P0rn/File hosting sites. They are extremely INFESTED with such unacceptable ads. You MUST have either adblock ruthlessly, use any extension that remove an element like Ublock, and/or use inspect element (have it opened BEFORE opening the page and have it as a separate window), and do not and I repeat, do not click anywhere on the page. A lot of times users encounter ads that place overlays on anything that is a clickable object that opens a scam site on the current tab and switches you to the new tab going to the intended link.

*You can get around this via rightclicking the download button and "save link as".
