- Rated 3 out of 5by bumpsy, 10 months agoonce the infinite loop is solved, it'll get 5 stars. I usually don't share wikipedia links so the added url-query doesn't really bother me. Would be nice to have that fixed, as well, though.
It's basically as quick as vanilla-wikipedia (unlike wikiwand). One thing I've noticed is that tables stay black in dark mode, which makes them barely readable - Rated 5 out of 5by mkmtrd, a year ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Thrillhouse, a year agoSeconding what James Cole's review said about the "?useskin=vector" being added to every page's URL. Really annoying and messes with my existing bookmarks (can't tell if a page has already been added since the URL no longer matches the several hundred bookmarks made before installing this extension). Even more annoying considering I'm already using vector anyway.
- Rated 3 out of 5by James Cole, a year agoThis is a great add-on. Normally the only issue is that it adds "?useskin=vector" to the url which is slightly annoying when sharing links, but the links work fine without the add-on.
Recently however v1.25 causes Firefox to get stuck in an infinite loop when accessing the base domain www.wikipedia.org. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18315448, a year ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Martijn, a year agoVery well-made extension, does excellent beauty and ux improvements. Deducting a star because the language switcher really misses some kind of "favourite/pinned" language(s), searching for it in a big list each time is annoying. The dark themes aren't quite to my liking either; they are very functional but not pretty (I use slate, it's ok).

- Rated 3 out of 5by Pedro, 2 years agoWikipedia home page keeps refreshing and I can't use Wikipedia home website with the extension enabled. Wikipedia article pages works fine.

- Rated 3 out of 5by EllieM, 2 years agoWhy do all these extensions now make the larger heading font serif even when sans is selected? I have dyslexia and have difficulty reading serif fonts. I always used another extension called Wikiwand but they changed the design last year and now uses a serif font for the larger heading fonts even when sans is selected. I looked for other extensions to replace it, and they all do it, even this one. It's so hard to read.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Aleksandr, 2 years agoHeaders and menu items are hard-coded to use, I quote, 'Iowan Old Style, Sitka Text, Palatino, Book Antiqua, serif' fonts. Since an ordinary PC has no such fonts, serif (usually it defaults to Times New Roman) is used, which is ugly.
