Hello,

The issue went away for a moment but is appearing again on this moment. Whenever I want to use markup or press enter those weird characters appear.

â€‹

I had the issue earlier as one of the global moderators explained here but it stopped after.

I think the following information may be useful:

MacOS Sonama 14.3.1
Safari 17.3.1

Edit: This does not happen if I add a character first and then press enter, it also does not happen when I highlight the selected text.
It does happen while in Incognito too.

Thanks in advance!

So that is something Ginler needs to fix by updating the forum software or stepping over to Xenforo (which has a mention system) which is nice.

For some reason, the issue decided to disappear again.
