Autocomplete problem

[kneeblock]

There is some wonky feature in the forum that makes weird autocomplete suggestions that sometimes make posting an incredible chore. It's like if you type a word then start to edit it, it will jam up.

Example: wifol Suffolkl.

Above I was attempting to type "will follow."

On mobile only btw. Could be chrome. @Splinty @I Wild Each It

I don't have that. Are you sure that isn't your browser or device?

Could be, but it only happens on this site. And only occasionally.

Sounds like it's your mobile keyboard. What phone do you browse with? I know Samsung's mobile keyboard can be a pain in the ass with its auto-correct. Nothing like the example you gave though.

Strange. I use a stock nexus. So I can't match you exactly.

Are you double tapping words to select?? Google will paste your clipboard in that case.

No double taps. I'll examine the phenomenon more carefully and try to pinpoint when exactly it happens.
