I usually hit the Reader View button within firefox if a page is unreadable. Returns a standard looking plain webpage, black text on white background at whatever font size I have it scaled up to.
Google's text-only cached results also help sometimes.
- mrob 7y agoI usually hit the Reader View button even when it's already readable. I'm not the slightest bit interested in what some designer thinks the page should look like. Even if they come up with something good, it's still inconvenient because it's different. Reader View still has gray text though, unless changed with userContent.css: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21853840 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21853840
- boring_twenties 7y ago> black text on white background It seems to use the colors provided by the desktop environment, actually. I'm using MATE with its BlackMATE theme and reader view is white text on black bg for me (which is what I prefer). The browser's preferences itself are set to black-on-white (simply because almost all websites would break otherwise), hence why I'm assuming it must be using MATE's colors.
