Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

It'd be nice to see Memory Alpha make the same move...

Good for them! I have said this before, but I would be more than happy to have a chat about providing hosting to M-A or at least offering them wiki.startrek.website (or whatever) assuming it's sustainable of course.

I hope they're open to it. Man what I wouldn't give to use Memory Alpha without all the annoying Fandom garbage.

I'm glad to see this. When I was playing Baldur's Gate 3, it took me a while to discover https://bg3.wiki rather than the previous dominant one, which was fextralife. I played the game quite early, so there were a lot of information gaps, and having somewhere that wasn't an ad filled nightmare to consult motivated me to help fill some of those gaps, because it felt like a community space more than a product.

Indie Wiki Buddy!

This extension auto redirects from fandom and fextralife to the equivalent indie Wiki! Never visit a horrid corporate wiki ever again! (unless you're a monster hunter fan like me ;_;)
