I agree with the premise and don't want to knock someone's project.

It does seem like a lot of computational effort to achieve what F9 / Reader View does in FF.

@focusedone I tried reader mode in several browsers it was such a hit or miss, it just did not work for me, and honestly I wanted to convert to markdown not just plain text

I tried several reader modes, there were several issues including * several potions of the main content was missing * the navigation bits get caught when in reader mode * the comments and other un-related sections come in play

I really tried these before invesitng time in this

Oh, cool! How does this do with the intentionally obfuscated sites?

You could be right. But plenty of websites with useful information intentionally obfuscate their pages to trick the browser into disabling reader mode.
