Five extensions for Chrome and Firefox if you are interested in and read articles without distractions

The Internet is ideal for staying informed, or spend hours reading the media and platforms you like. What happens is that, many times, there are so many visual stimuli that it may not be easy to focus at the time of digest information.

For this reason, today we are going to recommend a series of extensions for Google Chrome and Firefox that will help us to read from our browser, avoiding all sorts of distractions.


Just Read

Just Read is available in both for Firefox as for Google Chromeand it is one of the extensions most well-known to improve the way in which we read pages on the Internet.

Once installed, it will eliminate all the distractions so that we can read comfortably, and includes a series of topics that will allow us to customize the experience.

There is even a Premium plan (for $ 9.99 per year), that in addition to all of the above enables a mode of scroll machine, adds a functionality to annotate or highlight elements and allows us to share pages in “format Just Read”.

Mercury Reader

In addition to “delete all the remainder of your items”, this extension for Google Chrome includes a useful function: it allows us to send the pages (free of distractions) to our Kindle.

The design is very clean and neat, and is one of the best options that I’ve tried to read articles more focused on what really matters.

Simply Reader

This free extension for Google Chrome it will help us to “read the Internet with greatest pleasure”, as “the pages now will be more like the ones we see in the books”. It also allows us to change the font, its size, and the color scheme.

“Simple and concise”

Clearly

The creators of “Clearly” ensure that “reading is so essential that it should be a simple task and direct”. Claim that that is what they have sought to make with this extension for Google Chrome.

Once we have installed, we will see that in the top bar appears a white icon with a “C” in the color black. If we are, for example, reading an article and you click this icon you will enter the read mode.

Will the advertising and all the visual information unnecessary. Will only be the text and images of the article. Best of all is that we will be able to change the font size and the background (there is a mode, sepia, and dark).

Readability

Readability it is an extension for Firefox developed by Richard Neomy, which has as its mission to “eliminate the things that remain, such as buttons or background images”.

As in, Clearly, this extension also allows us to change the text size, contrast, show or hide the images, print what we are seeing or do you read it for us.
