readReddit, readable text posts on reddit par creesch

I greatly enjoy reading stories that are posted on subreddits like /r/WritingPrompts and /r/HFY as well as the sort of long form comments like found on /r/AskHistorians and /r/askscience What I like less is reading these on my computer. Both old and new reddit put too much clutter around text and the formatting itself always feels less than ideal for long pieces of text.
A while ago I had a realization "I can fix this!", which is what I promptly set out to do. I started out with a bit of custom css, then I realized I could do better with some scripting. That sort of spiraled out of control and before I knew it I had made it in a full blown browser extension.
So what does this extension do?
The extension takes text posts or comments and transforms the text from this into something more readable with less distractions like this
Or if you are more into dark themes it will actually look like this
It is even somewhat "smart" about how it grabs the text, so when you encounter one of those authors who didn't have enough space and needed to continue as replies to their original story it will also include the text from those comments! It does this by going over the comments in posting order, picking those made by the author (if there are any) and adding those to the story. It repeats that for child comments until the entire story has been combined.

So how do I make it work?
There a few methods actually! You can activate it for a text post, all the top level comments in a post or just one specific comment.
Activating for a text post or all the top level comments is done through the floating button on the bottom right corner when you are visiting a post. Once you hover over it you get to choose between text posts or comments.
If you just want to read an individual comment you can click on the "read" link that has been added to it.

Future plans

• Make the button position a setting.
• Setting to only show the button in selected subreddits
• Custom themes.
