I am on a bit of an anti-Apple binge over the last week on HN, but I will point out that Safari Reader, like most Apple "innovations", occurred somewhere else first, in the Readability extension for Firefox and Chrome released almost a year before SR that thousands of people were using, which was being recommended non-stop on Reddit and HN. Can we please not let another mythology grow up around Safari Reader as with all the other technology which Apple appropriates.[1]
