Would be cool if the official Wikipedia mobile app integrated this functionality! It does have a 'random articles' card, but it's nothing like this.

Not sure 'addiction' is being defeated here, though ๐Ÿ˜† Like if I'm addicted to sausages, giving me bacon instead isn't really solving the root of the issue. The issue being those sexy, sexy pigs.

The addiction isn't being defeated, it's just being redirected from something worthless to something useful. Well, at least less useless.
