    I want to avoid using Fandom as much as possible, is there a singular index that tracks all of the non-fandom wikis?

      There is a browser extension which redirects you to all the non fandom wikis. https://getindie.wiki/

        Thanks, I actually hadn’t fully realized I had to add wikis to the list of corporate run crap I need to avoid. Medium is way bad enough, let alone wikis too

      It used to be decent, until they sold out a few years ago.

    It genuinely gets worse every year, which is impressive
