Original Text

I built web tool for accessing just the (usually text) content of sites. It handles news sites best, thanks to Mozilla's fantastic Readability library. It also supports sites that use client-side rendering, using Puppeteer. Stripped pages are cached in Redis.

My main use-case for this tool is for extreme bandwidth-constrained networks, eg Meshtastic (with an internet gateway).
