Spelling check though - it's Garland Tools and Gamer Escape, though the search may find them regardless. I haven't tried.
I'd also add:
1) teamcraft.
While not really a database it's a great tool for experimenting with crafting rotations and stats aswell as creating crafting lists for a neat overview of all the materials needed and how to acquire them and setting an unlimited amount of alarms for timed nodes with node locations precisely listed.
2) ff14housing
A database for alll things housing with a picture of how each item looks ingame and data on how to acquire it
Other ones besides those already mentioned that I have in my bookmarks:
FFXIV Crafting / Crafting as a Service: Recipe builder. Lets you build a block of things to craft and tells you exactly what you'll need to make it
Cat Became Hungry: Fishing database
Ariyala's Toolkit Hunts: Hunt tracker for each server
ARR Triple Triad: Like XIV Collect, but focuses on the TT cards
Lalachievements: Achievement tracking per server based on Lodestone data. Also tracks some collectibles like XIV Collect.
That has to be one of the best game website names I have ever come across.
I think this is a big reason why we don't have a website like Wowhead for FFXIV. It's simple to set up and every discord is free publicity for S.E.
Meanwhile, Wowhead is an organization. It has employees and their business is the website. Would S.E. be willing to work with an outside company who wishes to run an encompassing website along the lines of WoWhead for FFXIV? Honestly, I'm not sure.
It takes a lot of time, money, and passion to build up the trust such a collaboration requires. The individuals running the informational game website would have to be people of the highest caliber. Individuals like Perculia don't grow on trees.

And loads and loads of discords for this and that as well..
I've mostly abandoned the aforementioned website for fishing purposes and instead rely on the fisher's discord and the Carbuncleplushy fishing tracker (Which lists basically everything you'd need to know about every fish including availability windows) for my fishing needs.
The sheer amount of ads they've been running lately has made it rather slow to utilize.

I remember when Thottbot and Allakhazam were revered when Everquest was the only PvE MMO, both of which I think were rolled into Wowhead later.
My guess is that youtubers are to "blame". Blame in quotes, because I generally find their information more useful.
But I also like gamerescape.com and https://ffxivcrafting.com/ aka "Crafting as a Service", which reminds me that I should pay "Crafting as a Service", since they are ad free.
You get what you pay for, either by ads or direct payment.
Apparently, no one has considered it profitable to make an Allakhazam/Wowhead for FF14.
Edited Note: Ironically, "Crafting as a Service" is not available at the moment. I hope it's not because they've decided it's not profitable without ads.

Crafting as a Service is alive for me at https://ffxivcrafting.com/
Edit: There is a comment that his web host had some issues yesterday that got resolved.
