So with many wikis moving away to Fandom's bad practices in the past few years. Many wikis are moving away from Fandom and either going to wiki.gg or Independent leaving the Fandom Wikis outdated and vandalized giving gamers outdated information.
Adding these browser add-ons as a pre-installed add-on would be great way to redirect traffic to the proper gaming avenues.

fugi-tiago last edited by@leocg as far as I know, he is talking about fandom's (the wiki site) wikis always being on top of the search page, when the owners of the same wiki alr changed to another site. The reason so much people hate fandom is because anyone, literaly anyone can change the page's information, making so a lot, if not all information on the wiki is incorrect, a example is the calamity terraria mod wiki, witch got completli destroyed by vandals (the ones changing the information), and when I say completle destroyed, I mean it. Another example is when the grimace shake was realeased by mcdonalds in celebration of grimace's anyversary, and mc payed fandom to change literaly allinformation of grimace on the wiki, turning it into a gigant add. So I think the reason is that yk, wrong information and insulting the comunities work just for some quick bucs is realy reayle nasty, there is alr a extencion called indie wiki buddy, witch redirects the bad sites to the new ones, maybe hes idea is for opera colaborate with the creator of that extencion to make it a default option for opera gx for example, I think that it is a realy good idea actualy. Im realy realy sorry for the gigant text and the bad english (is my 2 language). Have a nice day btw.

@fugi-tiago Right, but my questions remain. Why Opera should do that? Why Opera should waste resources adding those extensions and keeping them updated?
Those who want to install them can just go to Chrome store and do it.

Why Opera should do that?
Opera GX is a gaming browser and this is gaming related.

No one is wasting resources. These add-ons get updated automatically via Github.

Just because Opera is a gaming browser doesn't mean that it should add everything related to games that exist, even more fandom wikis being not just for games.
Like I said, those who want can install those extensions, no need for Opera to have it installed by default.
