Doesn’t it just redirect to BreezeWiki? BreezeWiki is just a Fandom mirror as far as I am aware. So while you won’t see Fandoms ads, the content is still on Fandom. Though, it is still better than the actual website by a lot… and the other redirects it offers are pretty great as well. https://breezewiki.com/

That’s sounds brilliant.

I typed “memory alpha” on the search page you linked to.

Cest La vie. On desktop fandom is fine, ublock handles it. On an iPhone though forget it. It’s the videos.

Yeah. LibRedirect is a nice generalist tool, but for wikis you are better off with Indie Wiki Buddy[1] which is a community led tool to point to the best avaialble wiki, or breeze if there isn't one. You def want this because some communities have made it a point to poison the fandom pages (see Terraria which is full of fake items and crafting recipes now).

BreezeWiki isn't a mirror, it's an API client. It pulls the content from Fandom via MediaWiki API and renders it.
