This is one of those things that as soon as I imagined it, I assumed that someone had already written it, and yes it exists.

[ https://einaregilsson.com/redirector/ ]

This is just a basic web extension that can match URL patters and replace them with other patterns. I'm using it because I got tired of Wikipedophilia and am using it to redirect *wikipedia.org/* to https://wikimili.com/$2 so I don't have to deal with the communists and pedophiles who run the real Wikipedia.

Oh, and yes, Wikimili exists and is a better way of reading Wikipedophilia than using wikipedia.com

You do that sort of redirect with local DNS too. Not much different than black holing ads..  No plugins required then.

Thanks for the heads up.

I like Gopherpedia myself, which is a gopher interface for Wikipedia.

That sounds pretty cool too. Now if we could just get Gopher links to appear in search results, that would be A+++ Would Buy Again kind of cool. :)

(Yeah I know ... I *do* run my own search engine, so get to it.)

So Medium, which has a few nice articles once in a while.. if you save the webpage locally and try to read it later, they have inserted javascript so it will fail on you on launch with a 404.

 

How nice of them.
