I cannot be sure, but I suspect that after having upgraded to F36,

Any ideas? Do others experience the same problem?

You need to provide more details about what "not working" means.  I just
installed it on F36 and opened an epub file with no problem.

Thanks, Samuel. When I try to open whatever epub file, I get the
following error message:

"Could not open file
Empty Response"

"Empty Response" issues were discussed for multiple distros and install methods
in foliate could not open file · Issue #401 · johnfactotum/foliate (github.com).
It seems to stem from cross-origin protections:

Quoting the wiki: By default, JavaScript and all external resources are blocked in Foliate.
For additional safeguard against potential vulnerabilities it is recommended to run Foliate
in a sandboxed environment, for example, by using the Flatpak package.

Thanks, George. That is exactly the same problem I am having!

That issue is all over the place.  It mostly seemed to be referring to
the snap install, but then there were a couple of mentions of other
types.  The rpm version works perfectly fine for me.  Is that what you
are using?  Where is the file you're trying to open?

Thanks, Samuel. The reported error corresponds to the rpm version of
foliate. The flatpak foliate package works perfectly.

Did you see the comment about deleting the user local mime.cache file? That might explain the difference. Mine is a new install and I've never associated epub files with anything. If you don't want to delete it, then try temporarily moving it somewhere else and see if that solves your problem.
