Note that the official Wikipedia mobile app has functionality like this as well. There's a section with an endless stack of cards containing articles.

Where can I find that section? I use Wikipedia for Android and don't see something like this.

Scroll down to a "Random article" card and select "More random articles" underneath.

You end up at the Randomizer, which lets you flick through a stack of random articles.

Nice. Thank you!

Yeah, many people don't really install wikipedia apps but it is actually quite good to store and organize reading material.
