Minor bug report ( in a quick take because I can't seem to find the intercom button on mobile, or it doesn't exist anymore)
On iOS Safari using the swipe typing keyboard, the text editor has three issues that I do not see in other text editors on iOS (have not tested other website text input, may be a safari bug).
One, after typing a word, backspace deletes only a single character instead of the whole word.
Two, after typing a word backspacing any number of characters, the next character or word typed gets a space in front of it.
Three, after selecting a section of text and deleting it, swipe-typing a new word does not add the word to the text field (but does put it in the keyboard history I think, given that relevant related words show up in autocorrect suggestions).
None of these issues s how up w hen typing character by character, only when swipe-typing.
Edit: this is not a new issue. I can't remember it ever working right, though I haven't been posting very long. Anyways, the bug would not be findable by bisecting recent commits.
Edit 2: tested on HackerNews, their comment box does not exhibit these bugs.
