Not sure if this is a GOS or Firefox issue.

Go to qwant.com, type something om the form, backspace doesn't work. Same result with ebay.com.

Using GrapheneOS, built-in keyboard, Firefox 150. Tried with and without ublock origin.

I think it has been a week or so since it started.

Anyone else got this issue?

Sorry if it's the wrong place to ask.

And thanks to the GOS devs, you have saved me from so many frustrations.

Edit: so far two people in comments seem to have similar problems so it's not just me.

Edit2: seems to only happen with some sites like qwant and ddg, and only with built-in GrapheneOS keyboard.

Curious if it happens on Android

Edit3: Duckduckgo now works, removed it from list

I think I known what you're seeing but it's specific to modifying a search query on ddg for me. It works fine otherwise.

can you capture a short clip of what's happening on your side?

    Exactly. Also happens on other sites like qwant. Not on google for some reason.

    So I'm not alone. I think you have the exact same issue then.

    I never did a capture, but the steps to reproduce are: search for something on qwant or ddg, or just type something on qwant.com search and then try backspace. Bacspace doesn't work on the search form on the page.

    This is really strange, but DDG now works propely for me with Heliboard. Modifying a search query no longer causes input to go crazy.

    Are you able to confirm?

    I've had this happen with DDG on desktop Firefox on Bazzite too but very infrequently

    So the question is is that another bug or is this some weird multi OS Firefox bug?

    From the other comments it looks as it would have something to do with the GOS keyboard but I'm not sure at all.

    First step would be figuring out where to create the issue...
