Question

"Leave a reply" at the bottom of thread appears/disappears as the thread is scrolled

The “leave a reply” thing (clicking into which the editor appears) at the bottom of a thread appears/disappears as the thread is scrolled.

This then leads to page “jumping” as it’s scrolled, as its size changes and things get recalculated on the fly.

More importantly, the “appear” logic is wrong and when the page is resized to smaller size, that “thing” never appears.

This - as all the other visual smog added for “modernity” - is entirely unnecessary and confusing. Just leave it there unconditionally.

The effect to be observable, the thread has to contain at least two posts (i.e. initial post and at least one reply). So here it is. Now with some screenshots to illustrate the problem:

Hi ​@waclawek.jan, 
Thanks for your feedback.

I’ve reached out to the platform provider to understand the inconsistent appear logic and if we can disable it entirely. 

I’ll keep you posted.
