Medium: expand clamped previews

Removes the text clamping in feed cards so you see full article previews at once.

Code to copy

// Expand clamped feed previews so full text shows in cards
(function () {
  function expand() {
    document.querySelectorAll('article p, article h3').forEach(function (el) {
      const cs = getComputedStyle(el);
      if (cs.webkitLineClamp && cs.webkitLineClamp !== 'none') {
        el.style.setProperty('-webkit-line-clamp', 'unset', 'important');
        el.style.setProperty('overflow', 'visible', 'important');
        el.style.setProperty('display', 'block', 'important');
      }
    });
  }
  expand();
  const obs = new MutationObserver(expand);
  obs.observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
})();
