Tell HN: Substack obfuscating text to break reading mode
13 points by xnx 1 day ago | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
I enabled Chrome reading mode for an article (https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/will-crypto-crash-the-blue-wave fwiw) on Substack and was confronted with an unspaced mess of text. Inspecting the original page revealed source like :<span>Will</span><span> </span><span>crypto</span><span> </span><span>crash</span><span> </span><span>the</span><span> </span>
 help



Firefox reading mode works without issues for me on that page. But can confirm I see the same thing in Chrome.

Firefox/Zen is best
