    One way, that almost always works for me, is android’s reading mode.

    I mapped it to the “2 finger swipe from the bottom” shortcut in accessibility.

    I have to quickly swipe, right when the page opens, preferably before finishing loading.

    And voila

    This was a walled article on NYT. It even becomes nicer to read.

    Doesn’t always work, but the fails are really rare.

      Yeah, reader mode is fantastic when it works (doesn’t always for me). In other cases, I just use uBlock Origin to disable javascript which seems to work most of the time.
