Big paragraphs appearing when I try to reply to threads

I'm using the browser on a Samsung phone and getting a weird thing - if it happens here I'll leave it so you can see what I mean! Big spaces are appearing at the bottom of posts, like when a cat stands on the enter key. And paragraphs are jumping apart

by themselves and the cursor skips around.

It's not happening on any other sites so definitely not my phone - just had to abandon a post entirely as it was "skipping" so much it became completely unresponsive!

I've given up checking my posts before I send them now. Maybe if the site is full of horribly formatted posts, they might do something.

See also, random boldness, inability to quote, etc.cursor jumping etc.

Same here. So marking my place

Happening to me too, incredibly frustrating.

I'm getting this on Samsung too. If I can figure out my log in I'll try it via chrome.

This is pissing ridiculous. Five of you have commented on this thread and NONE of you can be arsed to respond with an update??

Blister · 09/01/2023 22:41

Amen to that. I'll join you in the trend

itsthefinalcountdown1 · 09/01/2023 15:21

No one can be bothered fixing it so I'm going to stop going back through my posts deleting the gaps.

Mumsnet can look glitchy AF for everyone,😂 I don't care if they don't

kittensinthekitchen · 08/01/2023 19:51

Is there any update yet?

Have you tried anything to fix it yet?

Is everyone still on their Christmas break?

How long are we looking at for an improvement, because this issue is making MN virtually unusable at times.

Natsku · 08/01/2023 14:56

It's been happening to me too, Samsung s21 on opera. Its fine until I try and start a new paragraph and then it goes nuts.

Crunchymum · 08/01/2023 14:53

/\ /\ is what I'm dealing with. Please sort this sh*t out. I can't use this website at all.

Crunchymum · 08/01/2023 14:52

Awful, awful, virtually unusable.

I'm on a group specific to a certain issue (I post daily if can't at present ifnot more) and I

VenusStarr · 07/01/2023 12:07

It's worse than ever now. I try to tag someone and it initially highlights, then my screen goes white, does a big jump and as I scroll back up the tag is no longer bold. If I try to correct it, there's just a big white space and I hace to scroll for ages to try to post. Then when it's posted, it's not tagged the person 🙄

So irritating and making me not want to bother posting. And its actually doing it on this thread now when it didn't previously.

DuchessDandelion · 05/01/2023 23:15

Same here. Would like to see MNcome back with a proper update on a fix please -

@CarolineMumsnet

@LilyMumsnet

I'm also going to stop trying to work around it so my posts are going to be filled with giant paragraph gaps.

Crunchymum · 05/01/2023 16:40

It's still happening for me too. Its been ages now, is there any fix on the horizon?

EddieVeddersfoxymop · 04/01/2023 18:20

Still happening here, reported earlier in December. Galaxy s21, up to date. Samsung browser. Still annoying.

Thanks for trying and for letting us know, Binturongs. We are still working away on this and will keep you updated here.

BinturongsSmellOfPopcorn · 29/12/2022 00:16

No, just the same after the browser update.

BinturongsSmellOfPopcorn · 29/12/2022 00:10

Updating to version 19.0.6.3. Will test with that and see if it helps.

BinturongsSmellOfPopcorn · 29/12/2022 00:08

That's probably because you tagged people - same happens to me if I tag.

DuchessDandelion · 28/12/2022 23:52

I didnt put that post in bold, either, it did that when i hit the post button!

DuchessDandelion · 28/12/2022 23:51

@FlissMumsnet @LilyMumsnet @HebeMumsnet

What's the latest please?

Still having these problems and it's infuriating!

Still the same for me. I'm just posting really quickly and hoping for the best now!

Crunchymum · 27/12/2022 08:48

And yes I'm getting the lag with deleting as well. All in all its pretty unusable for me at present.

Crunchymum · 27/12/2022 08:46

I also cannot tag other posters, have to scroll down for ages to find the 'post' button and have to try multiple times to add any screenshots

Just to clarify, the above is on top of the paragraph issue and cursor moving randomly whilst I'm typing.
