I really wish the Krebs site rendered better on mobile browsers. It's a bit of a pain to read.

If you are on Android, I suggest getting Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-articles-reader-view-firefox-android https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-articles-reader-vi... The article can be flipped over into Reader Mode and is easy to read in that way.

  I suggest you don't. I switch away from firefox for this exact reason. Opera just displays the website correctly, no reader mode required. (Althoug aviable. I never use it and I think its only necessary for other browsers because their normal browsing feature is broken).

    Define "correctly"? This is how both Firefox and Chrome display the site on my phone: https://imgz.org/ixAQ9mUp/ https://imgz.org/ixAQ9mUp/ That's what's "correct". If you mean that Opera forces reader mode on every site, you have an odd definition of correctness.

      By "correctly" I mean "doing what is indented". I feel that the ultimate goal of the user of a blog is to read it. So by "correctly" I mean readable. This is how it looks on my phone with opera: https://ibb.co/wgmNJxQ https://ibb.co/wgmNJxQ https://ibb.co/BLqwBH1 https://ibb.co/BLqwBH1 That is the correct way to display it. In contrast to Chrome, that gives this complete nonsensical output: https://ibb.co/sySqtgc https://ibb.co/sySqtgc Do you have any use for this picture? Does this have any utility to you? Because for me it does not. For me this "unreadable mode" and I don't need such a mode. If it is useful for you: How do you use this? And why?

        I double-tap on the text to zoom to it, which is what Opera does, or use reader mode to get an even better view of it.

  I am using firefox as it happens but there's no reader view on offer for that site unfortunately

    That's strange, on Firefox for Android v68.11.0 every article for krebsonsecurity.com can render in the reader mode. The main home page does not work for this, but individual articles work fine.

I really wish mobile browsers would follow better standards of user interfaces. They're a bit of a pain to use.
