I don't see any major examples of "bloated CSS". I find that hard to believe.

We have brought constructive criticism if you look around the middle of the page — it's only after you posted that it's degenerated into flaming. Please explain how your post earlier on this thread, in which you practically just spout conspiracy theories about how we're losing customization and turning into some "corporate blob" instead (you got 8 kudos for doing that, so you know your audience at least) is constructive criticism.

Unencyclopedia + Fallout Wiki + League of Legends Wiki + Dota 2 Wiki + Dayz Wiki + … you get the point. Uncyclopedia was barely a Wikia wiki in the first place - when it was, it used a different skin. It also has very low viewership regardless as the wiki is basically a gimmick.

Fallout Wiki on Fandom is far more successful than The Vault which moved off-Wikia. If League of Legends Wiki ever split off-Wikia, it didn't work, the Fandom League of Legends Wiki has excellent viewership. Dota 2 Wiki was never part of Fandom to begin with.

So no, I don't "get your point". Of the wikis that split off of the Wikia host, only WoWpedia and Kingdom Hearts Wiki seemed to have done so successfully. WoWpedia because Blizzard linked to the new host, but even still WoWWiki has its viewership. Kingdom Hearts Wiki because us, the Final Fantasy Wiki - hosted by Fandom still - links to it instead of to the Wikia one.

Once again you're using the Strawman Fallacy — whenever anyone disagrees with you, you compare their criticism with whining.

I'm not really interested in debating those who disagree with me. I came here to call out the whining on Central that is completely counterproductive and will not help improve the site at all. I've seen it for the past several years, and I'm aware that my posts here won't change peoples' minds.
