Are you using Edge's immersive reader mode? If you are that's not a Samsung issue but I think I can help you with that because I just tested that mode and it read a whole long page for me.

I just tried it in Chrome and it read fine. I actually think this is wahat you were using, as it has the 3 dot menu and the read aloud function. I do not know if Firefox has it, but Samsung internet definitely does not. I did not go through the whole page, but perhaps if you are only getting a partial reading, and it's the only page that won't read, the pHe could be misconfigured in some way

There are read aloud extensions for Firefox. You can add one and see if that works for you.
