Activating Reader Mode's distraction-free reader manually every time can be tiresome, especially when visiting the same websites frequently. That's where an Auto-run feature for Reader Mode comes in.
An Auto-run feature for Reader Mode allows the user to specify websites where Reader Mode should activate automatically, using a regular expression (regex) pattern. Regex patterns are powerful tools for matching text, and they can be used to match website URLs too. The user can specify a regex pattern that matches the URLs of the websites they want Reader Mode to activate on automatically.
For example, let's say you frequently read articles on a blog with a URL like https://example.com/blog/post/123. You could create a regex pattern like ^https://example.com/blog/
to match all URLs that start with https://example.com/blog/. Or you can create a regex pattern such as /bbc.co.uk\/news/
to match all URLs that contains bbc.co.uk/news. Then, you could pu these patterns on the Auto-run feature settings for Reader Mode to activate on all URLs that match these patterns.
