What is the Ultra Preview feature?
I see an "Ultra preview" tag next to some posts, but I have no idea what this feature is. Does anybody know?
It takes the text from the article and lets you read it without opening the link, saves you from annoying ads
Huh, interesting. I'm finding it a bit difficult to tell which parts of the text are being pulled in.
Thanks!
Edit: actually, I'm pretty sure that's not it. It doesn't seem to have pulled out any of the text from this links in this post:

Sometimes whatever tool it's using doesn't grab the text right and messes up. Here's what it should look like.
Ultra preview is the large thumbnail / preview shown for that post.
By default that post doesn't have a preview and so ultra uses opengraph (a paid service) to grab a thumbnail.
Ah, gotcha. Thanks!
Also, any idea why only some articles have this option?
Used to be ‘reader’ modes only offered conversion of articles posted in ‘apple reader format’.
Some versions seem to have become smarter since then, but I’d imagine if it’s not using a standard or website it’s programed to be able to parse and condense, it can’t guarantee preservation of the article contents, and doesn’t offer it
