==== Slow performance ====

Miraheze is a large wikifarm that hosts over ~~8800~~ wikis<ref>https://miraheze.org/</ref> and understandably so, needs the adequate processing power. While it is a wonderful project and the ones powering it deserve all the credit they get, it does load relatively slowly.

Miraheze is a large wikifarm that hosts over 22,000 wikis<ref>https://miraheze.org/</ref> and understandably so, needs the adequate processing power. While it is a wonderful project and the ones powering it deserve all the credit they get, it does load relatively slowly.

Self-hosting the wiki allows the server to concentrate on putting the appropriate processing power on the wiki, which has faster load times.

==== Dormancy policy ====

Miraheze has a dormancy policy in which a wiki can get closed down or even deleted if it's inactive for too long.<ref>https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Dormancy_Policy#Process</ref> While this is an understandable process from Miraheze's side, the RL Wiki is not guaranteed to have sufficient activity to avoid the process - in fact, the 60-day threshold has been reached multiple times already.
