User:Collei/Fandom is fucked

Fandom, LLC is fucked! Yes, this is the first time I swore on Miraheze out of my thousands of cross-wiki contributions. I'm angry for a reason. Here is why.

UCP and other screwing up of shit
1. Broke every good feature (live chat, etc.) IIRC, they even said in a blog post that the exclusive reason that they removed Live Chat was because there was no commercial benefit to keep it. I'll go find the link again later.

2. No option to opt out from really anything.

Management
1. Employees are fired and editors banned for speaking out against the company's behavior. This is really one the most significant things that stands out to me, though it's not the only one.

2. Managers continue to try to get random employees to write positive Glassdoor reviews.

Moderation
1. One of my friends moderated a Fandom wiki before they were 13. Fandom never caught them for that. I don't care, and my friend doesn't care - we will not comply with unjust policies. What I do care about Fandom not doing is detecting child sexual abuse material in public posts. That's right. My friend had to delete child pornography from a wiki's discussions when they were 12, and it took Fandom around 8 hours to globally block the user who posted the shit. Fandom never told us if they reported it to law enforcement or whatever, they don't care about anyone so I doubt they did report it.

Advertising and refusing to let the communities own the content
1. Fandom says that communities own their wikis. But they continue to fuck things up and ruin communities if the communities dare disagree with them.

2. Ads on every page with no opt out.

3. Communities own the content apparently, but if they want to switch hosting providers or something, now Fandom owns the content.
