For this bug to reproduce, you need a WordPress.com account and a blog hosted there so you can reblog. Might also work with self-hosted blog plus JetPack, but I am not set up to try that.
STR:
- Log into WordPress, and visit a blog hosted at WordPress.com, but with a custom domain, like http://lydiaswelt.com.
- Open any post.
- Click the Reblog link.
- Expected: The reblogging UI should appear where you can choose which blog to reblog to, add a comment, etc.
- Actual: With protections on for this site, in my case set to strict, nothing happens. Only turning off the tracking protection for that site allows the reblogging link to work and open the popover with the UI.

Baku is this something you may want to look at? It is a fairly popular site and a common action.

Ehsan, do you have time to take a look?

I can take a look, sure. But please note that we have hundreds of open bugs with strict tracking protection (many with very popular sites) and at the moment we're mostly not working on any of them, so I'd be pretty surprised if this one gets prioritized...
Marco, I have a wordpress.com account, but my blog isn't hosted on wordpress.com. I also can't read German. So when I go to http://lydiaswelt.com/ I am lost and have no idea what I'm supposed to click on to get to the "reblogging UI" (I'm not familiar with wordpress and have never reblogged anything before).
Do you mind providing me with a more detailed STR which doesn't depend on being able to read a German website which lets me follow your steps to see if I can reproduce this problem? Thanks!

No problem, you should be able to get the same effect on my blog, which is hosted on wordpress.com. Try this post.

After some testing Marco and I realized that this cannot be reproduced any more...
