I’ve recently re-discovered firefox, and have fallen in love with Reader View, but I’m noticing a few problems. Most pages with articles will work just fine, but some refuse to allow reader view, and when you force those pages into reader view it doesn’t display the appropriate content.

In today’s issue, the website is just happy to allow me to view it in a readable format, but only if I want to read privacy and cookie garbage. How can I select the portion of the page I want to actually read, and tell firefox to ignore whatever bullshit I’m “supposed” to see or whatever?

I’m using Librewolf with UBO (with all filters on, including annoyances which are not on by default) and the site looks fine in reader mode and normally.
