Fandom is an ad-ridden shithole

I have been using it a lot lately, I did not know about that thanks to Firefox + Ublock

Yeah as another Firefox + Ublock Origin user, I came in here to say I've noticed a lot of game wikis announcing they're migrating off of Fandom, and I'm curious as to why. I'm OoTL.

There's a chrome extension that will redirect all your fandom traffic to breeze wiki or alternative wikis.

As a former chrome user who Migrated to firefox

Firefox is better than chrome

The whole internet is like this though

That’s why we use adblockers man

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago

Yeah, it's a shit-ridden ad hole.
