User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki domains will be changing from wikia.com to fandom.com in early 2019/@comment-4061971-20180815223134

Things like this is why people are abandoning Wikia Fandom for other sites like Miraheze. It has become clear to me and others I associate that this site no longer wishes to be a true wiki farm, but more of a buzzfeed-esque nerd site. I have no idea which direction Fandom intends to ultimately take itself over the coming months and years, but just know that many long-term contributors here don't like where it seems to be headed and are jumping ship. We will be moving on to sites that are dedicated to being non-profit, volunteer-driven, don't have ads up the wazoo, and don't try to drastically alter their site structure to fit a brand they weren't designed to be.
