Research direction

Reproduce the issue with https://www.krone.at/2095883 and https://www.krone.at/2095379, then inspect how the Readability entry point handles the shared div.kmm-article-box element. Done means the failing page yields the main article text rather than comments, while the working page remains supported.

Description

reader-mode-has-issues top-website-issue

Krone.at is the biggest print-paper in Austria and its website should be supported well.

While it works for https://www.krone.at/2095883, it fails completely for https://www.krone.at/2095379.
In both cases this element contains the article: div.kmm-article-box
