The builtin gf mapping can be used to open files and Netrw provides gx for links.

Hey! That is right. I think in many instances this plugin isn't really required. I did use gx for some time, but I think I stopped because I disabled netrw because of some other conflicting plugin and that stopped working. Another advantage over gx and gf is that the links will open no matter whether the cursor is over the link label or target.

But yeah, I think in many instances the plugin maybe doesn't add that much... (I actually don't use it all that much anymore as I've mostly moved away from markdown files).
