Last few days I've had an issue of the keyboard randomly disappearing whilst typing (perhaps due to ads?) so I then click on an ad or something else and lose all my typing.

It's making the site a lot more annoying to use.

Mostly, I find it under the newspaper.

Totally this. Been doing it for about a month now. Thought it was my keyboard app

Yes. And I'm about 95% sure it's due to ads that pop up over the page.

Sometimes I get 2 ads at once. I'm pretty sure that breaks it.

Yes, it seems like the Ad at the bottom of the page creeps up whilst you're typing.
So annoying

@Bozza not sure if you have any idea what could have changed to cause it as it's incredibly frustrating.

From another thread, another victim of the ads

One way to get round it is to first type your post in your Notes app and then copy and paste it.
