I would say that even this is untrue as the US has the largest system of navigable inland waterways in the world You could load a barge with cargo in Albany, NY and get it all the way to Omaha, NE without ever having to portage or unload the barge.

    Your wiki link is pointing to the Amazon Sidewalk article.

    Thank you. I have been having issues where the Wikipedia app doesn't properly open up a page and instead puts the text of the new page over the old page.

    I didn't even know there was a Wikipedia app. What's the point? What does it do better than a web browser?

    The UI is much better than the mobile browser and it opens up articles in a new tab that i can come back to without cluttering up my browser tabs

    As a non-app-user for basically anything…

    That’s totally fair. I might check it out, because Wikipedia on my phone browser is blinding and the private browser I use doesn’t have tabs.. and I don’t need Wikipedia private. Does it have a dark mode?

    Hmm still kinda like going through iCloud Private Relay even for Wiki but I guess it’s about the most trustworthy site out there
