Is this happening on meta?

3

Yes. It also happens in other forums. I can record it if that helps.

Please. I can’t repro off that for some reason. Unless it is a Apple only issue as I am on android.

In the video, once the screen goes dim, I try to press my profile, or the discourse logo, but nothing happens.

Im digging this currently, I think this is related to .card-cloak not being hidden in this case for some unknown reason, ATM.

My best guess is that something recently made https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/discourse/app/mixins/card-contents-base.js#L79 not working.

If I call this._hide() manually from close in user card component, it will correctly work.
