The image below is a screenshot from a post I was writing on users.rust-lang.org.
As is pretty plain to see, the input field is just completely broken. And it’s not new, it’s been going on for quite a while.
Oddly enough, meta.discourse.org doesn’t seem to have that problem. So what could be causing the issue?
For some reason the restrictions prevent me from posting the actual image in OP. Which is pretty counterproductive I have to say.
How will you know what I mean if I can’t post a single image showing the problem?
Anyway, I’m allowed to do it here in a separate post, so here it is:
Hi @jjpe 
welcome 
Can you provide more information about what device and OS that is please?
I cannot reproduce this. I was just on the Rust forum myself on both my iphone 15 pro iOS 18.0.1 and my Macbook MacOS 15.01 Sequoia and the composer is working as expected.
If it is only happening on that forum, I would think it is a theme component or plugin issue that your device / browser may not like. 
you could maybe give safe mode a try.
HI, thank you
Sure, it’s an android Samsung phone. AFAIK they all run the same software, aside from drivers.
It’s important to note that I only have the issue with my phone. The problem does not appear on my other devices (laptop, desktop).
I’ll give that a try, but it wouldn’t be a solution if it resets the color scheme to white. Not a big fan of being blinded
Ok so safe mode does seem to have nonzero effect.
However it’s difficult to gauge as the issue doesn’t occur 100% of the time. So the best thing for now I think is to use the site on safe mode for a while, and see if the issue pops up at all.
If it doesn’t then that’s a clear direction to look into: a component or plugin.
It turns out to be more complex than some plugin or component causing the issue.
The screenshot below is from internals.rust-lang.org with safe mode enabled.
Yet the text box is still sized wrong.
what model and os version? we need to be able to reproduce this to figure it out.
And which browser?
That would be the chrome browser.
The only accessibility setting I have enabled is “Force enable zoom”, but that shouldn’t be a factor here, since by default it doesn’t do anything. It just allows me to zoom in when otherwise that wouldn’t be possible.
I guess I missed this before.
The phone is a Samsung Galaxy S24+ with the latest updates installed.
That is, Android 14 and OneUI 6.1
I’m cross-linking a post I made about this issue on users.rust-lang.org.
More than a month later, has anything been done about this?
We’ve seen this before. Usually Font size and Display size settings on device.
It’s just web output. Check all influences on your Chrome display.
