User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki domains will be changing from wikia.com to fandom.com in early 2019/@comment-27820485-20180815205522

This seems like a big change, but it also seems concerning. When I joined in February 2016, the name "Wikia" is what I recognized when I joined this site. The rebrand to Fandom and then FANDOM didn't really faze me too much, but now changing the domain, I can understand that it's to keep consistency, but I really like the term "wikia" when it comes to information. It sounds professional and makes the content seems genuine. With "fandom", it can be really hard to believe if the content is genuine info, or a bunch of made-up randomness by fans.
