This is very odd indeed. I've tried to write this post three or four times by now and my Braille display (Humanware BrailleOne) keeps pasting in repeats of my post in somewhat of a mashed up fashion. I updated to the beta version of iOS 16.4 today but only just woke up the display. Anyone else having this issue? below is an example of the obnoxious text input shizzle my iPhone 13 Mini is currently pulling. phone, VoiceOver and Braille display have all been restarted. WTF? The text, which is very long, is right at the bottom below the hashtags.

@ladymunch Try rebooting your phone. I know it sounds dumb, but sometimes rebooting fixes weird issues. Haven’t seen any of those problems, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the old display issues have returned in some way. I hope not.
@Pipistrelle Thanks for your reply. I've restarted my phone, voiceover and my display to no avail. it's the weirdest thing!
@ladymunch Darn, that sucks.
@ladymunch it's not just you, I got a couple birdside dm's where this was a problem, and it made a mishmash of things and i told the person to kindly check and possibly fix their bolloxed things.
@ladymunch I have been having that problem with my Focus 14 and Qbraille XL for so long that I have given up using a braille display to write anything on my iPhone. It's just Braille screen input for me if I want to write something. It doesn't seem as bad with the Qbraille and It doesn't happen as often on my iPad mini but Braille has been a dumpster fire for quite a while for me. It happens more often the longer the chunk of text I am writing gets so I'm usually okay doing a sentence or two. Mail seems to be the worst but it happens everywhere and doesn't seem to be app specific. I'm using a 13 mini at the moment but it happened on the 12 pro and the SE I had before that. It's very frustrating.
@ladymunch I have a similar issue in the web interface ever since the latest Mastodon update, 4.1.0. I've been surprised no one has been talking about it. I use Chrome on Android and Windows 10.
@ladymunch to clarify, I am a sighted user and my problem is more with individual words glitching. So it may not be the same issue at all.
@yingtai I'm sorry you're having problems with the web interface. Our problems are most likely very different in origin, but are both still capable of being exceedingly aggravating Nonetheless. I hope these are fixed promptly, I suspect I’ll be waiting a long time for mine. Sorry for any typos, technology appears to be on the outs with me yet again today.
@ladymunch @yingtai Lol it doesn't seem as if any typos happened with that toot.
