Activate Reader View rather than complain about webpage clutter on some news sites

Reader View is built into Firefox (just click the icon when it appears). Elsewhere it's an add-on to install in your web browser.

For Chrome you can install it here:

Chrome Reader View

For Opera you can install it here:

Opera Reader View

If you want to use the Chrome version in Opera (because it's better?) then install this extension which will enable you to install not just it but also most Chrome extensions in Opera:

Sometimes there are pages which the icon won't appear for, to be clicked. A developer for Firefox had another (now legacy) extension that supposedly forced Reader View to work on such sites, but I never could get it to work much.
