Big fan of the reader mode changes. I'll probabky start using it more often, not just on sites with horrendous popups.

I think it's smart. Reader mode is also a very good way to avoid ads and even paywalls.

Yeah, I remembered reading in passing someone mention bypassing paywalls. Sure enough, it was as easy as pressing the little button. Full article ad free

I wish they'd add reader mode to Firefox Focus too.

Use reader mode a lot so love to see more tweaks available

Please give us "follow system theme" for reader mode on mobile, I beg you. I just can't understand why it's available for desktop but not for mobile.

Thank god for tab previews.

Now we just need a better system for tab unloading (that properly works with the tab preview) and that's the biggest features from Chrome I'd like to see in FireFox.

I just enabled the option to reopen tabs on close, usually open a new tab right before closing with the primary X button, then reopen Firefox so it unloads all tabs that don’t get loaded until I click on them individually. Works fine, isn’t a huge hassle. Good enough at least until it’s officially a feature.

I use tree style tabs and it also has an option to unload tabs. I might be wrong and there is a plugin for TST that adds this functionality though.
