Appreciate your input, was targeting the handful of people on the comments who are using an article as an excuse to continue pointless negative bitching

Wikis are Uber helpful, esp when you’re doing mod packs or they update game mechanics (mob spawning, I’m looking at you, ya cheeky fuck)

My main point here overall is that fandom wasn’t nearly as bad as everyone leads on and I’m sick and tired of negative echo chambers where people bitch just to bitch and claim that their venting is somehow equivalent to objective fact and not what it is: venting frustrations that extend far out of the reach of a fucking Minecraft wiki with some ads no worse than the most popular social media platforms.

I'm also confused by the odd replies in this thread. Four different people used a very specific and unique choice of words to describe Fandom that reeks of either fake accounts using copy/paste or they're real people echoing the exact words some influencer told them to believe. In either case it's not a genuine conversation going on here.

The alternatives I've seen multiple wikis move to from Fandom have all been better from my experience and that's a good thing. But shooting down Fandom because you're stuck in a bubble of fake comments or just hearing one opinion from a loud youtuber repeated over and over by their fans, it doesn't give us a real discussion or make any of us more informed on the topic. It's disappointing even if the end result is better wikis.

People are going to talk about what they want to talk about, do you really think you can change that?
