Title has it.
Props to @rachelmcr and @dougaitken for the report. Its not something that always happens, but only with certain posts. Doug found one on a private site that seems to exhibit the behavior consistently.

Reader [Type] Bug

I'm also having this issue on iPad / iOS10.1.1 / 6.8.0.20161205. I can't find any rhyme or reason to it, and posts start at different places - sometimes just a line down, sometimes three, and sometimes several paragraphs down the page.

Looking forward to the next version, and just let me know if I can do anything else. Thanks!

@aerych can probably close this one if you want

Let's keep it open until we roll out another beta. I wasn't able to reproduce this myself and I want to make sure those who were seeing it before aren't seeing it after the patch.

As a note. I'm on latest build, I believe (6.8.0.20161205) and still having this issue. It _seems_ to be mainly on long form posts, support rotation recaps, product overviews and such.
Some other posts I click into from Reader, and it will start with the author name being the highest on the screen - cutting off the title. I can so Lookback if needed, and I don't have Extra Debug enabled yet

Hey @dougaitken :) We haven't made a new beta available with this patch yet, but one should be coming soon. Thanks for following up!

No new reports since the release of 6.8.0.20161216. Optimistically closing for now but we can revisit if needed.

@aerych Unfortunately this is still happening for me with 6.8.0.20161216.

It definitely seems to affect longer posts that take up more than a full screen's height in my iPad mini. Shorter posts seem unaffected; they open at the top, as expected.

Bummer. :/
@kathrynwp Could you share a link to an example post? If its on a private blog maybe ping me on slack.

@aerych I'm no longer experiencing this issue with the new build! (6.8.20161221)

Yay!!!

Closing now that the fix is confirmed in the wild :)

@aerych I'm experiencing this glitch again as of version 6.9.0.20170207

Here's an example thread:

iPad mini retina / iOS 10.2.1

@kathrynwp Thanks for the heads up. It looks like another change we made caused this one to creep back up. We'll get it patched (hopefully for good!)

Patched again in #6633
