So I just noticed in Edge Version 81.0.396.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit), you can actually turn any page or better say, any content in a web page, into immersive reader (reading view) mode.
even though there are many web pages that don't have the required tags to trigger the immersive reader button to show up on Edge, now you can highlight or select a specific part of a web page such as texts or images, or just press CTRL + A to select everything and then right-click and choose "open in immersive reader".
this is useful in 2 cases
- on pages that you can already use immersive reader button because it shows up at top on the address bar but you only want to have some of the parts of the page in immersive reader mode.
- on pages that don't support immersive reader at all, you can select all of the page or only parts of it and turn them into immersive reader mode.
This is a great feature added, Thanks for listening to the feedback, that's exactly what I was looking for.

This seriously needs to happen to make reading view more useful.
