Description

I have issues with adding or editing text to description or comments of issues (see attached gif). Text is autocompleted repetitively.

I have the same problem with mobile view. Testet in Firefox and Chrome on Android 8 / 9.

Not sure how many testimonials are necessary, but I can confirm the same issue on Chrome for Android. It seems like it is potentially an issue with the rich text editing function of the box, that automatically applies markdown syntax & formatting as you type (this would modify your cursor location and could mess with soft-keyboards' auto-complete/word substitution). If this is too big of an issue, even a simple textarea would resolve the issue in the short-term, since it isn't usable as-is.

Thanks!

Switching to desktop view (android10/11 + chrome) seems to work around the issue, but that's not ideal on tiny screens.

There's a workaround: Press the last icon on the toolbar the black 🗅 folded over note. That will switch off the editor.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. I am here to help clear issues left open even if solved or waiting for more insight. This issue will be closed if no further activity occurs during the next 2 weeks. If the issue is still valid just add a comment to keep it alive. Thank you for your contributions.

but the error is not fixed yet?

This problem has now been known for at least 5mo - could you please switch off the editor by default on mobile browsers until this is fixed. It's provides a terrible first impression for anyone encountering Gitea on mobile for the first time. See #13132
