Page is unreadable on ios, and reader doesn’t render. Is there a reformatted version? Seems interesting.

    Something about the page's structure causes Safari's reader mode to only display the first quoted section but no other part of the content. Those mirrors don't do anything to help the page's structure unfortunately.

      I've wondered if some commercial websites that behave this way do it "accidentally on purpose"

        Some commercial sites definitely break reader modes on purpose. I think this is more a case of a Safari bug. The site's text content is just served in raw divs inside table rows. The quoted Usenet posts are inside pre elements inside table rows. A div is more of a logical grouping element than a text-containing block element. So Safari's reader is showing the first text-containing block element it finds. If you want to break reader mode in Safari I guess the secret is to just use horribly mangled HTML. TIL.

  Interesting; Reader Mode works fine in GNOME's WebKit-based browser. Seems like an Apple specific bug, perhaps you should report it.
