User reviews

Users appreciate the extension's modernized, visually appealing design and enhanced readability with customizable themes and multimedia integration. However, multiple reviews mention navigation difficulties due to missing section headings, limited support for non-English pages, particularly Russian, and occasional privacy errors on browsers like Brave. Some users find persistent installation prompts intrusive, and there is a noted absence of developer communications or update alerts. Overall, the extension improves the Wikipedia reading experience but has usability and compatibility issues that affect some users.
Pros
  • Improved design and readability compared to the original Wikipedia page
  • Customizable and pleasant themes creating a more enjoyable reading experience
  • Ad-free and aesthetically pleasing interface making long reading sessions comfortable
  • Integration with multimedia content like embedded videos
  • Offline access to articles enhancing usability
Cons
  • Limited support and functionality for non-English Wikipedia pages, especially Russian
  • Navigation issues such as the removal of section headings making it harder to jump to specific sections
  • Occasional privacy or encryption errors on certain browsers (e.g., Brave) causing access problems
  • Persistent prompts or pop-ups urging users to install the extension, which some find annoying
  • Lack of update notifications or user communication from developers

I like the look (especially Leo atmosphere) but have switched it off when I realised the list of section headings on the left is removed. When you go to the page for a country, want to go the section on the Economy, say, pretty colours are no replacement for being able to click on a link and go to the section rather than scrolling down through several pages searching by eye (rather than by CPU).
