Is there any equivalent or close to equivalent feature on other browsers?
Still pretty dope if it's firefox-exclusive, just curious to know if firefox-based browsers have it as well

Should be on all FF based browsers. Chrome has a reader mode extension but it's nowhere near as good.

I want to know why Mozilla won't add it to Firefox Focus.

GNOME Web also has it

Safari has reader mode too, for a very long time.

not Foss, Google app warning, don't shoot me

Google has an app called Reading Mode that you can trigger by holding both volume buttons. Works anywhere and has dictation, but the output isn't as good as the Firefox one in my experience.
