Flow: typing in long posts causes the screen to jump
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The WMF core features team tracks this bug on Mingle card https://mingle.corp.wikimedia.org/projects/flow/cards/632, but people from the community are welcome to contribute here and in Gerrit.

This bug is still occurring.
To reproduce: Open a topic by itself,[1] reply to the bottom-most post, hit [enter] a few dozen times (to expand the text-area below the fold), then start typing.

Possibly the Front-end overhaul will solve this bug; but re-opening in the meantime, just for clarity.
