I absolutely love reability. Not only does it remove distracting ads and styling but it allows me to decrease the number of words per line which is great for improving my speed reading.

I totally agree. I love the beauty of your blog, folks, but when I actually want to read your blog, I use readability.

I wish there was a way to track the use of readability on a site actually. Would be good feedback for web designers.

If you embed a readability button you could adjust it to capture those metrics for you.

That, or you could ensure that your blog is actually readable. I'd prefer the latter :)

Agreed re: words per line, but removing ads is wrong. If you don't like ads (excluding offensive or animated ones), don't visit sites that make their money from them.

Since when did any content creators, HN included, support stripping non-offensive ads from ad-supported content?
