These days news sites and blogs are bombarded with tons of ads and irrelevant content daily. Though we can block the intrusive ads, even the content formatting and design have been misleading at a time.
Hence, we can enable a reading or simplified view that will only display the text within the blog or news site and eliminate the rest. This is part of accessibility settings that can be very helpful.
With the new and updated version of the Edge Browser, you can now get the immersive reader button in the Browser to view the page in reader mode. It enables when the site is better viewed in the reader mode.
The ads, images, and related content are trimmed down with the edge reader mode, and only the plain text is displayed for consumption. It is the same as reading a novel on Kindle without any graphics.
