Reading View in Insider Channels
Adding "read:" before the URL doesn't work. This worked in all other Edge versions (Win10, Android, iOS) to force Reading View. But here it doesn't work. Maybe you can repair this feature. It was always helpful to force pages into Reading View, even if Edge doesn't think the page is ready for Reading View.
PS: On a sidenote in classic Edge the Reading View was scrolled horizontally instead of vertically and also had a very nice column view. This was better than what the new Edge has.
MartinProhn forcing reading view would be great for me too. There are still many pages where Edge doesn't offer reading view while it would really benefit from it. And if I carefully manipulate the URL with "read://" in front and append "?url=<completurl>" it seems to work just fine.
