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.
