SO MANY STUPIDLY DESIGNED WEBSITES!

Reader Mode: "Here is the main text in a sensible typeface at a reasonable size with high contrast and appropriate margins."

There should not be a need for Reader Mode. RM's utility is a solid indictment against web designers.

Look at your site-intended-to-convey-textual-information with Reader Mode. If it breaks, fix that. If the page is suddenly much easier to read... you have work to do.

Typeface.
Size.
Contrast.
Margins.

Yes!!!

(Do you know if there's a way to force reader mode? For me it's not always available... (Firefox on android))

(Which to my mind is a bug in the browser that it even allows that.)

The other day I hit a website on accessibility that thought light lavender text on a periwinkle background was reasonable. Sigh.
