@etelka It's still available. You just have to click the book icon on the address bar to enter reader mode. It's in your pic and is even faster then going through the menu.
With that said, as to why "toggle reader mode" was removed from the Menu -> Page, I'll ask around.

For the sake of an example here is the site I used to activate reader mode from Menu > Page in (uta-net) and a page that actually has the icon among my open tabs. uta-net has never shown the icon on the address bar for me and it doesn't allow me to select the lyrics text normally, but when I activate reader mode then I can select and copy the lyrics. I like to save lyrics like that frequently, of course I can just find another site or something but I thought it was weird to remove that option when it's so convenient in situations like this and I would love to have it back. Thank you so much for addressing the issue!

For https://www.uta-net.com/song/122468/, the reader mode icon on the address bar was showing for me initially. But, after reloading the page, it's not.
One workaround for copying the lyrics is to hit ctrl + shift + i on the page to open developer tools. Then, on the Elements tabs, click the "event listeners" tab at the bottom and expand both "copy" and "selectionstart". Then, remove both listeners from each. Then you can select the text (with the mouse at least) and copy it (with ctrl + c at least).
The page uses Javascript to go out of its way to block you from copying things.

https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/reader-view/ecabifbgmdmgdllomnfinbmaellmclnh seems to work for that site, which you can use as a workaround for now.

frank-hol last edited byThe book icon in the web address bar URL wasn't even showing for me. Here is what I did:
In the URL or web address bar, type the following and hit enter:
opera://flags/
In the “Search Flags” bar at the top, type reader.
Look in the “Reading Mode” section. On the right-hand side, there is a drop-down menu.
It’s on “Default [E]”. Click on it and then click on “Enabled”.
Then click on the “Relaunch” button.
