A clean "Wikiwand" alternative.
It will be better if the horizontal scrollbar can be hidden when the font size is large.

This extension really changes the way you see Wikipedia. I especially love Dark mode on Wikipedia. However there's a problem. This extension is mostly made for english Wikipedia and some tables in wikipedia of other languages can still be white even with dark mode.
