[Serious Bug] Text box for writing replies realigns with beginning of text and scrolls actual typing out of the window (lemmy.ml)

When composing a reply to a post, the text box scrolls naturally with the text as it is being typed until I start a second paragraph. At that point, the text box scrolls back to the beginning of the reply. When I am physically typing, it momentarily scrolls back down but then immediately goes back to the beginning. It makes it impossible to read what I am typing.

I use a larger font, so this might be an accessibility issue, or it might be related to a couple of refresh-type issues I’ve seen in other areas of the app.

I have an iPhone 13 running iOS 17, but this was present in iOS 16 as well.

I've not been able to reproduce this bug. Did it appear in a recent version? Are you using a custom in-app font or just larger fonts at the system level?

I have it captured as a gif if you want to see it in action, but I can’t find a way to upload/link the file. Even after converting it to a gif, it’s not showing up in my photo library as an option to upload. If you want to set up a temp email or some other way to receive it, I will send it. I’d just prefer not to have to make an account on some hosting site just for this.

The latest (testflight) build has some changes to the editor, mind checking if the issue is resolved?

Sure, I’d be happy to give it a shot. Thanks!

I am using both Larger Text under accessibility and the largest System font text size in the app. It tends to happen after the first paragraph break when the text box should be auto scrolling to fit the new text.

It doesn’t happen every single time, but it happens pretty consistently.

I’m now reproducing it on the third paragraph in this text. I am trying to capture it.
