[02:01:38] [1/2] Unpopular opinion [02:01:38] [2/2] Final Fantasy X-2 was a good game just not as good as X [09:27:48] I haven't played either. 😭 [20:04:04] [1/2] apparently anons getting redirected away from file pages on FANDOM was done as SEO measure [20:04:04] [2/2] https://community.fandom.com/f/p/3685233706663939045 [20:18:22] I think that was Fandom specific, and that was from like 2020? [20:18:50] Search engine these days don't really care about those pages [20:19:41] Unless I'm missing something [20:23:41] I have no idea [20:23:53] but it's fucking annoying thing to do lol [20:24:14] more like they knew that people constanly repost images from wikis and used SEO as an excuse [20:37:34] Well, actually the above thing is real, not an excuse as search engine works like that long ago [20:38:11] And I don't think people do repost images from file: [20:38:25] more likely sharing using direct links instead [20:40:21] no? go to wiki, find the image in article infobox (clicking here gives static link) or gallery (opens in media viewer), wanna have hi res - go to file from there [20:40:25] always been like this [20:41:30] google doesn't gives static links easily too [20:41:40] it throws you to the page [20:42:01] [1/2] From what I spied on my "viewers", they don't actually left click at the image to open media viewer (or whatever pop-up that can result to File: link) [20:42:02] [2/2] They mostly right click and copy image link instead [20:42:06] 💀 [20:43:47] There's quite a trend before on Fandom that people copy files will result webp instead of png or jpg [20:44:18] That's how I know why most ppl don't use media viewer at all [20:46:24] I noticed webp thing at least in 2017, but I forgot how exactly I circumvented that [20:47:01] [1/2] Only when you access original files [20:47:02] [2/2] (there's a short time they broke webp somehow)
