Citing "lack of transparency from Fandom [...] loss of features [...] and toxic company culture."

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

As a matter of fact, there are opportunities here for other companies that don’t have general wikis for gamers to create a better hosting service. They have not done this and I don’t understand why. Steam could easily do this, I think. Just imagine Steam creating a wiki for games, with links to the best guides, etc. It would be a modern version of GameFaqs (which still exists) but improved. When I do a search on a game and I get Fandom in my results, I tend to skip over it and look for something better without ad bullshit. I would think that other gamers tend to do the same thing. I mean, it’s that bad, even for a user without a registered account (like me).
