In an attempt to enjoy this effect more broadly, I have Reader Mode set to enabled by default on Safari mobile.

On Firefox desktop I often use the Reader View button on news stories. There is an extension to enable this by default, but I have a hard time trusting browser add-ons.

What do you think about recommended add-ons by Firefox, for example Tranquility Reader https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tranquility-1... ? Their code is supposed to be checked by Firefox team, so it's probably safe to use.

Oh wow, did not even know you could enable by default on Safari mobile. I really like this!

This is also a great way to work around many paywalls, as when reader mode is on by default, it kicks in before the JavaScript that throws up the paywall.

I didn't know you can do that, thank you!
