Enter/newline key does not register a newline in comments

[ketura]

In Firefox beta on android, attempting to press the enter/newline key results in a space upon first press and no whitespace at all on subsequent presses. This makes writing comments a drag, as you are limited to a single paragraph. Even copy-pasting text with newlines appears to have them removed.

Each newline press does result in a character being added (which you can tell by pressing backspace). Suspect perhaps a CSS thing.

To Reproduce 1- open any thread 2- attempt to leave a comment. Use the enter key or paste in material with multiple newlines 3- observe that the text box has ignored all newline input

Expected behavior Newlines should behave as they do in every text app ever.

Can confirm on latest OL build on latest f-droid Fennec, not present in normal reddit. Weird - I dont remember ever modifying input box behavior on reddit.

I just confirmed that the newlines are in fact preserved in the submitted message, they just don't look any different from spaces in the text box:

I am now more suspicious of it being a CSS thing that is perhaps crushing the vertical padding of <p> or <div> tags to 0. Some selector meant for one of the menu bars incorrectly matching something about the text box, or something.

It's caused by white-space: unset on textarea. I dont remember why I put it there, gonna remove that.
