There already is an extension that does that super well, it's a game-changer for my ADHD brain.
It's called readermode.
Here are screenshots from a page with text before and after use of the extension.
Invested in the Pro version (which is a one-time payment of $15 with lifetime free updates, it's really worth every cent). Besides presenting text in a very comfortable-to-read-way (even for ADHD brains), it also has text-to-speech, autoscroll, is super customizable, etc.
I'm always looking for problems without solutions to help create helpful stuff for people, but in most cases I'm able to find already existing solutions that are just not known to the right people with specific problems.
Heard 1st time about undici
. Looks nice :)
Bdw is there any library that grabs a page's content without the irrelevant header & footer? Something like Reader Mode Chrome Extension or Firefox's Reader View?

What would be likely to break it?
Reader Mode Premium. Instead of using different apps and extension to highlight, annotate, bookmark and do the research/citation. You can do all of this with Reader Mode Premium.
You can use Reader Mode extension as an alternative. It is way better and has a lot of useful functions like text-to-speech, text annotating and highlighting, dyslexia support and many more cool cuztomization tools. Check it out here: https://readermode.io
Hi, there, I just recently released a chrome extension called "Reader Mode" for this purpose - it's a distraction-free reader with supports for dyslexics. It comes with OpenDyslexics fonts, Dyslexia Ruler and also Text-to-speech feature. You can check it out here: https://readermode.io
If you use Chrome, you could take a look at Reader Mode. It gives you access to dyslexic fonts and rulers, and it's free.
(FYI – I'm not the developer, I just saw it on Twitter today)
