Click the “reader mode” button in Firefox. I think most other browsers have something similar. Alternatively, use the browser’s dev tools to edit the page’s style sheets. This can be much more flexible, but requires learning a lot about html and css. Also, you would have to make the same edits every time you visit the page, which is annoying.
There are also extensions like Greasemonkey or Custom Style Script that allow you to automatically apply a stylesheet to pages when you visit them, to save you the manual effort. Someone still has to write the style sheet, but there are webpages where people show off their creations and let you download them for yourself.
- greenyoda 5y agoUnfortunately, Reader Mode in Firefox doesn't work for all pages, only pages that have markup that it understands.[1] I use a Firefox extension called "Dark Background and Light Text"[2] that lets you override the foreground/background colors for HTML pages. (Despite the name, you can pick whatever colors you like. And you can selectively enable/disable it based on the domain.) Another similar extension, that's also available for Chrome, is "Dark Reader".[3] But its colors are not configurable. Both of these extensions are open source.
