Please have a look at MWE below.

With old ConTeXt  ver: 2026.01.08 23:30 LMTX  fmt: 2026.1.26
there is the needed page break in tufte and second page starts with …

«fine, enumerate, glean, synopsize, winnow the wheat from the chaff and separate
the sheep from the goats.1»

… with 1 being the footnote marker. At the bottom of the page is text of footnote 1. 
That's how it should be.


With recent ConTeXt  ver: 2026.04.27 13:56 LMTX  fmt: 2026.6.5
the tufte is not split at all. The footnote text now stands all alone on next page.

Help please!

Steffen
