Reading the web offline and distraction-free

I run "lynx --dump $URL | vim -" to read the text in Vim when the web page gets too cluttered (I use Vim as a pager because I know "Vim" better than "less").

Links (I don't know if lynx has it) has a mode where it can put images in too, and render to a desktop window, and I think an image file. It makes websites look completely different, but is useful for a wikipedia article or a news article where the important bits are the text and photo/graphs.
