The reader view is an amazing tool that helps declutter websites and make them easier to read. However, this experience is ruined by having a super bright white background that to my knowledge I can't make black. I tried the setting that disables overriding the colors but it still remains white. Any ideas why that happens and how to change it?

In some pages, redaer view shows the wrong text -- it looks like it picks up text from a hyperlink. An example is this page:

    https://www.britannica.com/biography/Pee-Wee-Russell

where Reader View shows the text from:

    https://www.britannica.com/art/clarinet

(which is linked inside).

I am using Firefox 134.0 on MacOS (Sequoia 15.2)

Reader view continues not to work correctly. Apparently this issue has been occurring unresolved for at least almost two years: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1371897

I'm currently experiencing it with this article which is paywalled but to which I'm signed in: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1993/02/22/beverly-hills-hotel-paradise-lost

Reader view shows the full non-truncated view when using Firefox for Android or Safari for Mac OS.

I'd rather use Firefox, but I come across multiple such issues using either the desktop or mobile version which is making it increasingly difficult to rely on this browser.

Hi all. Years ago I used to use a text only browser and as everyone knows as time goes by more and more graphical content flys onto your screen plus all the other rubbish which is just a pain.

Its also good for gobbling up your data allocation if on a mobile plan or fixed monthly data package and when you go over you have to open up that wallet and and over more hard earned cash.

So after checking out Firefox option I see the "text" toggle button only works on some websites or is not available at all on other sites.

Is Firefox or the programmers going to look at full support in the near future for text/graphical option to toggle between in the browser? I think it would be definitely worth the effort and time. This would also be ideal on very low bandwidth connections.

Why in many articles the Reader View access button in not enabled in URL right hand side. For example

How and where do I report when immersive reader mode renders a page incorrectly? What are the rules governing immersive reader mode inclusion?

An example is : Britain prepares NHS drug spending hike to stave off Trump tariffs

Start Firefox, open four tabs, separate them into four, and place them in a specific position on one of the monitors, all separately. How can I ensure that the next time I restart the system, when I start that Firefox profile, they all open in that position and separated? Artificial intelligence says that it would be impossible for Firefox to do something like this, as its native problem does not allow it to do so.

For now, I have set up a macro to do it automatically, but that takes time. I would like it to happen automatically when I start up.

Another thing, it would be nice if Firefox allowed you to zoom in on a specific area of the screen, and then be able to minimize the screen manually as much as possible, leaving only the zoomed-in part visible. Unfortunately, I've been doing this through inspect and deleting things on the page, but it would be great if they added it.

Reader view doesn't work on many Lifehacker pages/articles. Can something be done to make it work on those pages? Here's an example:

https://lifehacker.com/tech/the-fbi-is-targeting-popular-anti-paywall-site-archiveis?test_uuid=02DN02BmbRCcASIX6xMQtY9&test_variant=B

On this page https://www.apc.org/en/project/member-engagement-and-travel-fund the first section of text is missed out from reader view - so that the text starts half way through the article. I understand the table will be ignored - and the internal table of contents links at the very top, but there is a paragraph in between those things that is being ignored entirely. The normal text parts should all be included for the article to make sense.

I have tried changing the markup so the paragraph was not inside the same div as the table or table of contents but this does not seem to make any difference.

Google chrome reader view handles the page fine.

Any tips no how to change markup to avoid this or is there a way to fix it?
