1810635 - [Bug] Sharing a tab that is in reader mode doesn't load in desktop Firefox

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android :: Accounts and Sync, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Almeida [:jonalmeida]]

From github: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/17129.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open any website in Fenix and enable reader mode.
2. Share tab with desktop Firefox through Share button.
3. The tab appears in desktop Firefox but doesn't load. I believe that's because the URL for reader mode is different in mobile and desktop Firefox.

Expected behavior

The tabs that are in reader mode should be loaded in desktop Firefox, and preferably in reader mode.

Actual behavior

The tabs that are in reader mode don't load and have a URL like this:

moz-extension://d7e444f5-d44b-4937-b273-cbe3687d5800/readerview.html?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgadgets.ndtv.com%2Fmobiles%2Fnews%2Flg-rollable-slide-price-usd-2359-leak-expected-launch-june-2021-tipster-2340487%3Famp%3D1%26akamai-rum%3Doff&id=274877907133

When I manually change it to the following, it loads fine:

about:reader?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgadgets.ndtv.com%2Fmobiles%2Fnews%2Flg-rollable-slide-price-usd-2359-leak-expected-launch-june-2021-tipster-2340487%3Famp%3D1%26akamai-rum%3Doff&id=274877907133

Device information
