When editing an article on my Android phone, if I tap on a particular point in the text, it automatically zooms out and scrolls up to the top of the article.

This occurs on LinkedIn and Energy Central, for exxample. It was not occurring as I wrote this comment, after testing with 5 paragraphs of lorem ipsum.

This problem is particularly problematic for me right now as my landline internet is down, and I can't connect my phone's internet to my laptop or my computer via hotspot, Bluetooth, and USB tethering. Libraries are also closed.

Hi James

Thank you for your question and for taking the time to make that video.

Have you tried to see if the same thing happens in Firefox Preview (our new Android browser)?
