Original author here. Thanks for the submission. I built the service mostly for myself because I have an old Kobo eBook reader and the browser is pretty basic. This works very well, though.
Only after building it I realized that there could be more use-cases; for example when traveling and working from a bad connection. The pages are usually much more lightweight than the original ones and don't contain any trackers.
I don't even have metrics for that service. No idea how many people are using it and I don't care for the most part. That said, if anyone is interested in using the service you can run your own instance and be completely independent.
The code is here BTW: https://github.com/readable-app/readable https://github.com/readable-app/readable.
