I just opened waterfox, went to a page on The Register (tech news site), and invoked the reader view with alt-ctrl-r. It seems to be working. Perhaps try it with this page: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/02/11/microsoft_roundup/ The reader will not work on all pages, only on ones that the browser thinks are formatted like an article of some kind, I think. SO if you can't invoke it, maybe you haven't yet tried it on a page where it would apply.

Instead, pressing f9 does the trick. I think I tested it once so far in Waterfox and, indeed, f9 does not seem to do anything. I will try accessing the reader through the menu or the alt-ctrl keystroke and see. BTW, as nice as the reader function is, everybody should be aware that it’s not perfect at determiningg what is “useful content” on a page, and you may occasionally miss something important while using it. It is nice for reading articles, just be aware that it’s not 100% dependable.
