Fandom PoE still pollutes the top of Google searches :(
- paranoidxprod 2y agoJust tested a bunch and it seems like `path of exile [skill/currency]` usually ranks the Fandom higher while `poe [skill/currency]` ranks the new wiki higher which is why I never noticed (I actually never noticed because I block the PoE Fandom and pin the new wiki on Kagi)
- ykonstant 2y agoThat's good info.
- RheingoldRiver 2y agoYou may also want to install: https://getindie.wiki/ https://getindie.wiki/
- dpbriggs 2y agoThere is an extension which automatically redirects you from Fandom to the new wiki. While that's convenient it probably helps Fandom stay near the top.
- iamacyborg 2y agoIt does, if you’re clicking on those fandom links and not subsequently providing any negative signals back to Google it’ll assume that’s where you wanted to go. It was and remains a worthwhile trade-off to ensure folks got to the right wiki though.
- entrox 2y agoConsider switching to Kagi with its feature to personalize your results by biasing certain domains. I've configured it to lower results from *.fandom.com and am really happy about it.
