Perhaps someone will make a 'medium' plugin for FF to make the plain reader mode behave more like medium? ;)
- chrismorgan 8y agoReader mode is about:reader, which is protected from modifications by extensions. (This annoys me, because I’d like an actual black on white theme in reader mode, and I can’t do that without, if I recall correctly, userContent.css modifications, which you can’t do on mobile.)

- pmontra 8y agoOn Android: turn on reader mode, press the Aa button in the bottom right, press Light. The page is displayed with black text on white background.
- chrismorgan 8y agoWhoops, I meant white on black, which is much better than light grey on dark grey, on devices like OLED displays. Sigh.
- pmontra 8y agoThat's the default for me, or touch Dark in that screen. Ah, I zoomed in and saw it: the text is not white, it's light gray.

- pmontra 8y agoYep. I used to have a Samsung SG2 with AMOLED and I hated grayish backgrounds in dark rooms at night: they emit light and hurt eyes when a pure black one doesn't emit any. Luckily my ebook reader of choice (Cool Reader) let me set the colors for day and night modes.
