User reviews
Omg these negative reviewers... smh. like, imagine being so entitled that you leave bad reviews not because something doesn't work, but because you don't think it should exist?
what's next, are you gonna start reviewing air because you don't think oxygen molecules should be arranged that way? lmao
Honey, if 10 people need this extension, that's 10 more reasons than your review needs to exist 💅
just say you don't understand niche tools and go... it's giving main character syndrome tbh
This works great even on Android that says it is incompatible. Wikipedians are biased trolls that are unnecessary in the age of Ai and do not need to beg for out donations.
Works great. The people posting 1 stars for this extension are just trolls who work for Wikipedia, mad that someone found a way to block their stupid donation begging banners. Ignore them and install this, works great. Took off a star because it still appears on wikipedia's homepage, but other than that works well.
