User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:55.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/55.0
Build ID: 20170512030203

Steps to reproduce:

I went to a website hosting a novel I'm reading, and activated reading mode.
Here's the website: https://eromangaweb.wordpress.com/eross-volume-1-chapter-5/

I'm using Firefox Nightly with last updates (55.0a1).


Actual results:

Reading mode told me it couldn't load the article using the page.


Expected results:

It should have entered reading mode. It worked until a few days ago. Even chapters I've already read with reading mode don't work anymore.

It still works with Firefox Developer Edition.
It just worked after trying again and again.

Gijs, as you are in charge of Reader Mode and you have some bugfixes (bug 1358248, bug 1360842) in this pushlog, could it be related? (I don't have access to these bug reports)

This is a duplicate of the less-accurately-summarized bug 1364056. Sorry. I will do my best to get it fixed today.
