...Reddit user Taylan, who created and shared a Baldur’s Gate 3 wiki as an alternative to the existing Fextralife site at the beginning of 2022. “In my opinion [the Fextralife wiki] isn’t a particularly nice wiki,” Taylan wrote. “It shoves ads in your face, and claims copyright ownership over anything you write. (Essentially, if you add something to their wiki, you’re doing unpaid work for their company. Not to be a hater, but I dislike that.)”

The irony and lack of self awareness is thick. To be fair, that was in 2022, before Spez shit the bed.

I don't get it. What is hypocritical about this new BG3 wiki?

The irony comment is referring to them making that statement while on reddit.
