1161123 - Reader Mode icon appears on Twitter pages (if you're logged in), but doesn't usefully capture anything to read

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox Graveyard :: Reading List, defect)

Description

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

STR:
 1. Visit a Twitter profile page like:
      https://twitter.com/mozilla/
    ...or an individual tweet like:
      https://twitter.com/mozilla/status/594865293723357184

 2. Notice that reader-mode icon shows up in URL bar.
 3. Click the reader-mode icon.

ACTUAL RESULTS:
  - At the mozilla profile page, the content area just turns grey, and the title changes to "Failed to load article from page".

  - At an individual tweet page, some arbitrary twitter info text gets featured as the "article":
{
Mozilla on Twitter

Country/region

Standard text message charges may apply depending on your mobile carrier. Your number will not be shown publicly. At first, others will be able to find you by your phone number; however, you can change your privacy settings at any time.
}

EXPECTED RESULTS: Probably no reader-mode icon for Twitter.  At least, not until we can usefully select out the right text to show.

We can consider this WORKSFORME. The links in comment 0 don't trigger the reader-mode icon in the URL bar anymore. (Not sure if due to a fix in Firefox or Twitter/X, but it works as-expected now, one way or another.)
