Sorry to ask, but what is readability mode and how do I use it. I googled, but due to SEO I get a ton of results.

  It's a Firefox feature. That feature alone made me switch to FF for browsing.

    Also in Safari, it's the little 3-line icon in the URL bar.

  Many browsers have a "reading" mode or extension that strips CSS and pictures. Safari Reader is built in, Firefox and Chrome have an extension called Readability that you can install.

    It's built into firefox as far as I know, it's on the right hand end of the uri bar for me.

      Holy cow I've used Firefox since it was called Mozilla browser and was owned by Netscape and I've never seen that a reader mode was built in. I'm an idiot.

        It's one of the best things about the browser on mobile phones. I never have an issue with weird JavaScript pop ups or sites that are not movie friendly.

        don't feel so bad, I am in the same boat. I remember loading up Netscape to my 486 with a 3.5 floppy

  Readability is a browser feature that extracts the text of a website and displays it in a pre-defined, easy to read way. Safari calls this feature “Reader”[1]. [1] https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21467?locale=en_US https://support.apple.com/kb/PH21467?locale=en_US
