How to Turn on Dark Mode on Wikipedia [Mobile App & Website]

 The majority of the information we seek for online is found on the open-source website Wikipedia. Wikipedia opens by default with a light background. On Wikipedia, one can activate dark mode to read in low light, though. It lowers the amount of light your device emits while maintaining the minimal colour contrast ratio necessary for readability. While the browser edition of Wikipedia requires a third-party extension, the mobile version already supports dark mode.
