The cakePHP website uses (almost) white font on white background, doesn't work in Reader mode, and many links point to 404s (eg: https://api.cakephp.org/4.3/namespace-Controller.html)... Is it still maintained?

Yes, CakePHP is still maintained. The API docs are something that is being worked on and, we'll get the 404s fixed soon.

What browser are you having problems with in reader mode?

Firefox doesn't show the Reader icon (right of the url bar). If trying to force reader mode with

    about:reader?url=https://cakephp.org/
it displays the error:

    Failed to load article from page
As it is, the text in super light grey is completely unreadable.

Interesting, I've never seen this mode of firefox before. I checked a few other sites and they also had a 'Failed to load article from page' error. Do you have a link for a site that does work?

It usually works. Here's the 3rd link from HN home page right now for example
