Из плюсов - вместо белых букв на ченой странице теперь можно получить внятно читаемый текст на светлом фоне, без бокового меню, да и шрифт крупнее и четче Из минусов - иногда пропускает часть страницы и нет навигаци, чтобы перейти на следующуу страницы надо закрыть расширение, перейти на след страницу и опять включить ( Linux Mint Crome )

7 megabytes!? What in the world made this extension 100 time larger than all the extensions in the webstore... Severely bloatware.

Displaying a page translated with Google Translate in the reader because it only knows the original

I have now downloaded this extension and tested it. I printed out the page with my order in the online store. Bottom line: this extension displays the web page correctly. The print output is good.

Data privacy feels very loose, and access must be granted to all websites. You must read an additional "Postlight Reader Terms of Service" to begin using the extension.

A very important addition when reading articles and the most important thing is to read in dark mode.

It works. Opens in postlight reader is great. HOWEVER, after closing the postlight reader, the original site's format is broken. Need to refresh after everytime I close the postlight reader to see the original format.

Good but I wish it would sync with the browser's light or dark mode.

Used to love it but over time it became less functional and more buggy. I use browsers Chrome and Brave.

Muy útil. Es una funcionalidad que tendría que tener Chrome de forma nativa (como ya la tiene Firefox)

It is my favourite extension for Chrome. After years of not using it, I use it again when I have Kindle App on my android reader. It will be fine to have the same application with "send epub to" my PocketBook, "send PDF to" ... etc. I will check how it works on ChromeBook and maybe on Chromium on Raspberry Pi.

Doesn't work, like everyone else is saying. Nothing happens when you click on it. It might have worked at some point in the past....

Mercury Reader was the best extension in the World! It not only presented the text in an easy to read manner it also allowed me to read For Pay articles. I got an update yesterday to Postlight Reader that wasn't the English version. I removed and downloaded the English version but did not help. It does not do anything. I click and click but nothing happens. PLEASE ALLOW ME TO GO BACK TO MERCURY READER.
