Having a nightmare replying to threads

This seems to have been an issue for a few weeks now. Every time I try to respond on a thread, I start getting huge gaps opening up between paragraphs. Then, the words I'm typing start jumping around and merging into each other. It's become almost impossible to contribute to a thread. I've had a look through 'Site Stuff' and can't see that this is a problem for anyone else.
Can anyone advise?

Hi OP

It sounds similar to the issues experienced on this thread www.mumsnet.com/talk/site_stuff/4684524-big-paragraphs-appearing-when-i-try-to-reply-to-threads which we at MNHQ weren't able to replicate.

However a poster today suggested a fix which seems to be working.
They said -

'Samsung users: the problem may be due to Samsung integrating Grammarly into it's Keyboard, this app checks everything written for the correct grammar. Try disabling it as suggested in these threads:

forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s22-s22-plus-s22-ultra/1052889-phone-keeps-adding-extra-lines-while-posting-forums.html
I did it a few days ago and now can post without phantom spaces, which I was experiencing here and on xenforo powered forums.'

Thanks @LilyMumsnet . I have disabled Grammarly so I'll see if that helps.

So far, replying to my own thread has gone without a problem.

Adding another paragraph just to check...

All seems fine now! Thanks for your help.
