User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/How we're testing the fandom.com domain migration/@comment-34687312-20181015145418

idk I think this is a very crappy idea. The popularity of Wikia is quickly dying out, and a lot of people really don't take it seriously anymore. Does FANDOM think that this is gonna somehow improve that? Because in reality, it might just drive people away.

Hell, the very thought of it is kinda driving ME to dislike FANDOM as a whole. Why do they need to do this?? Why do they feel that "wikia" has to be one with FANDOM ? Are they THAT desperate?

PLUS, can't they literally just code HTTPS or whatever into the wikia.com domain??? There isn't any reason why they shouldn't!

I really think this is a bad idea. There might be some serious consequences to this decision. I mean, if there's backlash NOW and people are disliking the idea, then how do they think that this is gonna have any chance of making it in the future?
