Reddit's basic business model was "We provide the platform, so you do all the hard work for free."

The fediverse would be the same if it were a business.

Wikia and Fandom forever haunt my dreams. Wiki.gg will go that route eventually.

Honestly, I don't think it will. It seems to be backed by the likes of Terraria and Ark. Should be perfectly fine for quite a while.

Same for Weird Gloop and Miraheze as well.

I mean as in they'll start putting annoying, aggressive ads all over it and such.

That's the thing, though. Fandom is a corporation. It has one goal: profit. These other organisations aren't profit-driven, so they won't do that unless they really have to for some reasom.
