## Description

This simple extension redirects users from the old, unofficial NixOS wiki to the new, official one. Search engines seem to prefer the old wiki, so this redirect helps improve the SEO of the new wiki and makes it easier for users to find it directly. Additionally, the old wiki blocks VPN users for some reason, so this extension helps VPN users access the NixOS wiki without any issues.
