fandom.com has always been a pile of barely usable garbage. More projects should follow and self host a wiki again.

a core issue for moving wikis is that Fandom refuses to delete the old wiki so you 1) have to fight an SEO war against them; and 2) have to contend with directing everyone to the right place or else you have two competing wikis (one of which will gradually lapse out of date). it's very irritating.

what if someone pushes thousands of edits with random AI generated garbage from thousands of accounts?

Unfortunately they're likely well equipped to deal with that kind of situation as it's not all that different than normal wiki vandalism.
