Hacker News Reader

Thanks for the feedback regarding this, I've been trying to find a middle-ground between my authoring style (writing raw HTML with low overhead, instead of using a static site generator) and "portable readability".

I have a feeling it's just me not annotating the markup correctly, which I am in the process of fixing and porting around!

Personally, I've found that adding 3 lines of javascript to make a style switcher leads to great results. (You know you can simply load a CSS file in javascript and apply it, in a single command?)

They didn't use proper html syntax like <article>, <h2>, etc.; only <div>.

With this it's not possible for the browser to know what is the content of the article.

It's possible, just more difficult. E.g., Safari reader mode works fine for this page.

No idea. And I won't be reading it either.

Someone wanting the world's attention because of a crisis really should not add extra friction.
