    2021-10-13 Jarko I was super sick of mobile Reddit users linking mobile Wikipedia articles, rather than the web version! Every time I'd have to spend three seconds highlighting the ".m" and backspacing. But not anymore! With "Skip Mobile Wikipedia" by legoktm, mobile Wikipedia article links automatically turn into ones that direct you to the web version of the article, its a breeze! It feels like it loads faster than normal!
