What I tried to do

I tried to use Firenvim on reddit.com to edit a post, but the text doesn't appear in the Neovim buffer.

What happened

You can see that the Neovim buffer only contains two lines, "Cancel" and the next line is "Save Edits". The rest of the post, which can be seen in the picture, is behind the Neovim buffer, but not inside the Neovim buffer.

Same end-result. (Found this Github Issue here while searching for a solution to the same problem of firenvim not working on reddit.com.) It also seems to work fine on other sites, including correctly triggering an AutoCmd rule setting the filetype to markdown on github.com. No issues there.

On reddit.com, the behavior differs when starting from the reddit.com Markdown editor mode vs the reddit.com Rich Text editor mode, but in both cases, it's still broken-- just broken differently.

In Markdown mode, typing some chars like "asdf", then pressing to trigger firenvim, does not load the "asdf" text from the textarea into the firenvim buffer to begin editing there. Then also, :wq to save and return to the on-page textarea/editor does not write or save the info back to the window, it's just blank.

In Rich Text Editor mode, it does correctly pick up the initial text ("asdf" in my example above), but the :wq to save and return still does not write or save that info back to the window, still blank/broken.

Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to try in order to diagnose this issue further, and thanks for your help and for the great plug-in.
