Seriously? I need this on my DS now too but I think it'd be a huge file

140ish gigs for the kiwix copy

That's not huge, but I recently ran into some issues of my DS lite not accepting a too big SD card

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 3 points 4 days ago

The size of the latest version of articles (no history) and without any media (pictures and videos) is pretty small. It's less than 200 GB.

Oh yeah, you need one of those cards that takes an SD card. I think you do need the nopic download to keep the filesize manageable.

Thank you! I love this idea

You find the nopic version is still usable? I haven't used the offline content, but I feel like no images would leave me wanting more. Then again, for what it is, it's still pretty awesome, and I understand that storage space is a consideration.

Yeah, most of the pages is text anyway.
