Add-on summary

Indie Wiki Buddy helps you easily find and support independent wikis you might otherwise miss in search results.

When you visit a wiki on Fandom, this extension will notify or automatically redirect you to quality independent wikis when they're available. This extension also filters search results in Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and other search engines to replace non-independent wikis with text inviting you to visit the independent counterpart.

And you're in full control -- you can choose your experience wiki-by-wiki!

Indie Wiki Buddy also lets you easily enable BreezeWiki, a service that renders Fandom wikis without ads or bloat. This helps give you a more enjoyable reading experience on Fandom when an independent wiki isn't available.
