it doesnt make sense tho
navy blue was literally named for its use in the BRITISH ROYAL NAVY in the mid-1700’s
maroon is literally an evolution of french marron, meaning chestnut. its a brownish red. like a chestnut.
like, the kids making these memes need to take a fucking elective that isnt a sport. do teenage boys still think that “art is for fags” or something? learn colors, you sound stupid!!!!
This is like hilarious but also stop being pretentious, it’s a perfectly fair comparison to make. Navy blue = a darker and more desaturated blue and maroon = a darker and more desaturated red. The modifier “navy” is so disconnected enough from its roots that it makes sense for it to assume a new contextual meaning. Sure, the name comes from the British navy using it, but what we’re talking about is how it modifies a color.
i do not care how pretentious i sound, this joke is picking the lowest-hanging fruit ive ever seen. its LAZY.
it comes across as “haha look at this funny r/showerthoughts post i saw!!! so relatable, am i right fellow non-artists?”
its a low effort joke aimed at people who could not be paid to give a shit about trying any artistic medium, but lose their mind over a notebook sketch someone does in 15 minutes and scream “I WISH I COULD DRAW LIKE YOU” as if it doesnt take years of practice; like the artist was born with an “artistic gene” or some bullshit
all i ask is that people try just a little bit more to not sound dumb when theyre trying to be funny
This guy thinks it’s an insult to artists where as I’m pretty sure a sizable amount of the notes on this post are artists saying ‘’YEAH THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE!! NAVY RED!!’’
if you don’t know the name origin of every single color ever then you aren’t an artist
and mustard is navy yellow
the navy trifecta: navy blue, maroon, and mustard. this leads into a gateway to a whole new color spectrum: the navy color wheel
i did the best I could
ok. :)
A collection.
I was sorting through a decade's worth of dozens of art supplies, scribbling some quick lines with each one, testing them to see if they still work and if yes, how well. This here is what accidentally came of it.
it's important to have a group of ppl that you can just sit and think about The Character with
wake up babe, new reason to ditch FANDOM/Wikia just dropped
![Zelda Wiki twitter: Fandom refused to take this wiki down after we returned to independence and now it looks like they are using generative A.I. for "quick answers" which are spreading misinformation. Please stop using Fandom. We do not approve of our past work being used like this. [Screenshot of FANDOM Zelda Wiki with Quick Answers feature]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/55df791ecf5b885002a8ef164826ff07/cca355bad3b8715c-54/s1280x1920/948ce234abb745ea67c95d7bc58aade423eb7712.jpg)
ALT![Zelda Wiki twitter: IN one case, it provides "answers" for a completely unrelated franchise. [Screenshot of FANDOM Zelda Wiki with Quick Answers feature]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/dba0adad0a30f2d590ae05c4f7c0a839/cca355bad3b8715c-7d/s1280x1920/e7de260bae3d90e01cad8ae1a3e6032e202e3c79.jpg)

- corporate monster infested with ads which devoured Gamepedia and other companies (feat me on their shit policies, SEO and migration process)
- turning entire articles into ads if paid enough
- limited functionality preventing admins to even fight vandalism
- merging and removing of LGBT+ wikis (and forced domain change for educational [think serious] wikis to "fandom")
- official wiki status has no meaning in controlling shit
- very much censorship (same good ol' allergy to adult stuff)
- gets paid by US Navy to advertise their events (one, two)
Alternative free wiki hostings (aka wiki farms)
- Miraheze - started in 2015, non-commercial - no ads and runs on donations, wide array of MediaWiki features, wide array of allowed types of wikis and content, much autonomy for projects, custom domain and private wiki options
- wiki.gg - started in 2022 by former Gamepedia staff, limited to video games, accent on involvement of game devs and thus hosting official wikis, has ads for anons (but only of games having wikis here)
- Telepedia - started in 2022, limited to entertainment (although might allow other themes upon review), has ads for anons, replicates Miraheze structure
- WikiTide - started in 2023, no ads and runs on donations (but also tied w/ premium version called WikiForge), largely replicates Miraheze but has stricter content policies, custom domain option
Other free options I'm aware of are either too limited in allowed content or are very outdated/unstable in technical department to recommend here (or in case of Neoseeker - I'm completely unfamiliar with it, and can't say anything about it), but you still can check them out, alongside paid hostings, on this MediaWiki page.
If you (or your community) are brave and dedicated enough you can go with self-hosted MediaWiki instance (aka independent hosting), like JoJo Wiki (who started on Wikia and succeed at overtaking the SEO) or NIWA wikis. This option, of course, requires funding and technical knowledge, but it's still very much possible.
How to find existing alternative/independent wikis
- try to use "-fandom" filter for search query in Google, or use other search engines like Bing or DuckDuckGo
- Indie Wiki Buddy browser extension - it modifies search engine results and performs redirects based on its centralized list of independent wikis; a new indie wiki has to be requested/submitted to get added [ Firefox / Chrome ]
- Redirect to wiki.gg browser extension - same as IWB but for wikis moved to wiki.gg (as I understand, works automatically without dedicated listing) [ Firefox / Chrome ]
- (simple) Redirector browser extension - in case the wiki is neither on IWB or wiki.gg, and it doesn't filter out search results - only performs redirect on whatever you get; a redirect has to be set manually - see this tutorial [ Firefox / Chrome ]
Fuck FANDOM, support real people, support indie wikis
