Hi, as one of WMF developers who work on MobileFrontend[1], I'd love to know how third parties use this extension. How does your caching works? How are you detecting mobile devices? Do you have any problems with running it? Finally, just tell us if you tried it at all:)

I think someone told me to tell you that Uncyclopedia uses it, but even though I apparently set it up (or so I'm told), I have no recollection whatsoever of having done this nor do I have any idea if it actually works or how well, or what might be caching where or any such stuff.
And we never did figure out how to detect mobile devices that I know of. It seemed complicated when I looked into it.
WikiApiary (the _Check usage and version matrix_ link on the extension's page) suggests the following wikis use MobileFrontend beyond all of the WMF sites. Oddly, this list doesn't include Uncyclopedia, though its page http://wikiapiary.com/wiki/Uncyclopedia#tab=Extensions lists MobileFrontend.
