minecraft.wiki
After several discussions, we are excited to announce that the Minecraft Wiki has now moved from Fandom to minecraft.wiki – all of the information about the game can now be found at the new location!

    Good.

    It’s reached the point (or had a couple of years ago, which was the last time I went to a wiki hosted there) that it’s virtually impossible to even read an entry, since there are so many ads that the actual text of the article spends more time off the screen than on it.

      IMO the worst part is the ads that auto-scroll you to the top of the page after you’ve spent two minutes reading

    This is great news. The old site really went to shit the last few years, especially on mobile, with ads using >50% of the screen.

    The Minecraft wiki used to be it’s own thing before moving to Fandom didn’t it? Either way, very happy about this

      Yes, it was great back then. I really enjoyed using it until they switched over to Fandom. So glad they got rid of it again.

      Yeah, they were previously hosted by Curse until Fandom bought out all the Curse wikis and transferred them to their ad-ridden pile of shit

    A big win for the Minecraft community. The wiki experience had gone seriously downhill after Fandom took over.

    I’m trying to figure out how to contact DuckDuckGo, so they can redirect the !mcwiki command to the new site, but no luck so far. EDIT: Nevermind, I found the form.
