Wikia/Fandom may not be "to blame" per se, but this is the cost of operating a wiki on a "paid for by advertising" platform. Invariably, your content will be sharing space with advertisements, some small and unobtrusive, others less so, and performance and speed will be affected. There really isn't much to be done, unless Wikia decides to implement a paid, ad-free wiki hosting service like some of its competitors.

And yeah, for web development, I use an extensionless version of Blisk so I can see the site as it would truly appear; I can't imagine trying to develop a website with extensions running in the background.
