Keyboard features missing when writing a comment #1602

Open sub-cidr opened 1 day ago

sub-cidr commented 1 day ago

Describe the bug When writing a comment on mobile-app, certain features of the keyboard app(no matter which keyboard app) stops working. Such as: autocorrect, spellcheck and backspace(to delete letters). The functions seem to vary on what works and what doesn't work. For example, backspace does not work on Swift keyboard app (by Microsoft), whilst it does work on Gboard (Googles keyboard app). However, autocorrect seem to not work on either of them.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Go to any post
  2. Click on comment button
  3. Start typing
  4. Attempt to use backspace to delete words.
  5. See error

Expected behaviour Expect the autocorrect and all other functions of the keyboard app in use to function with all of its functionality as it does elsewhere.

Additional context Voyager app installed via Fdroid.

This bug was also discussed over at Lemmy, where multiple people mention that they have the same issue, also with other keyboard apps. The discussion can be viewed here: https://slrpnk.net/post/13461230

Same thing with the Pixel 7 Pro running GrapheneOS.

Using the FUTO keyboard, but autocorrect/swipe to text/other features don't work when typing up comments in Voyager. This only started recently.

Workaround: On the keyboard, tap the "Keyboard select" button at the bottom right, then select the already active keyboard and the features will start working again.

Other apps don't have a problem like this. This bug only started happening recently with Voyager.
