Refresh the page once in reader mode if that happens

Just disable javascript instead and it won't also fuck up your CSS.

I can't find it anywhere in my Firefox

On pages that reader mode supports, you should see the icon on the right side of the address bar. Here's an example from one of my tabs:

In addition to the other comment, if you hit a page that force disables it, sometimes you can see it if you stop the age mid-load, then go into Reader Mode, and refresh.

Is there any equivalent or close to equivalent feature on other browsers?
Still pretty dope if it's firefox-exclusive, just curious to know if firefox-based browsers have it as well

I want to know why Mozilla won't add it to Firefox Focus.

Should be on all FF based browsers. Chrome has a reader mode extension but it's nowhere near as good.

Safari has reader mode too, for a very long time.

not Foss, Google app warning, don't shoot me

Google has an app called Reading Mode that you can trigger by holding both volume buttons. Works anywhere and has dictation, but the output isn't as good as the Firefox one in my experience.
