Summary: Couldn't open https://dev.sy24.ru/ due NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID StartCom CA (was: Couldn't open https://dev.sy24.ru/ due NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID)
The certificate for this site is from 29 August 2016 and it does appear to have Certificate Transparency. The blog post notes that not all certificates issued before the cutoff date (16 Oct 2016) will be trusted, and eventually all will be distrusted.
> Beginning with Chrome 56, certificates issued by WoSign and StartCom after October 21, 2016 00:00:00 UTC will not be trusted.

But this certificate was issued 2016-08-29

The next sentences and paragraphs explain that it's not just date. I highlighted the bits below with __ markers

Certificates issued before this date may continue to be trusted, __for a time__, if they comply with the Certificate Transparency in Chrome policy __or are issued to a limited set of domains known to be customers of WoSign and StartCom.__

Due to a number of technical limitations and concerns, __Google Chrome is unable to trust all pre-existing certificates while ensuring our users are sufficiently protected from further misissuance__. As a result of these changes, customers of WoSign and StartCom may find their certificates no longer work in Chrome 56.

__In subsequent Chrome releases, these exceptions will be reduced and ultimately removed, culminating in the full distrust of these CAs. __
