Yeah, this has to do with chat. When I disable the chat, I only need to hit the back button once.

And no, you don't need to interact with the chat.

Oh thanks for reporting that bug, I've never experienced that before. What browser? Both Chrome and Firefox don't have this issue, so it's probably something to do with the browser, or a plug-in to the browser, I'd guess

For me, I use Firefox. Could be either an ublock or no script issue, but not sure. Never bothered to play around with that. Normally I just find a work-around and stick to it. :P

Sorry if this doesn't fix the problem.

Could be either an ublock or no script issue, but not sure.

I use firefox with adblock plus and have never ever had this problem even once. So it must be to do with ublock or no script. Could you try an experiment and temporarily disable those plugins and see if it fixes it for you? If it does, see if you can figure out which one in specific it is. That'd be super helpful.

OK, so I first disabled Ublock (BTW, I use to use Adblock Plus) and enabled chat, and the behavior started again. After I re-enabled Ublock, the behavior disappears without disabling No Script, which was the next step. Now I don’t get that behavior even with both addons enabled. Quite weird, but not sure if it’s fixed since I can’t reproduce this right now.

haha /u/d3rr look at this weird behavior from the software.

Thanks a lot for checking it out! We had some other issue back a while ago where the 'subscribe' buttons to subs were being hidden by ublock, so my suspicion is that it's the real problem. If you ever figure out how to re-enable the double-back thing, let us know!

Maybe it's some ublock cache thing, and what you did cleared the cache? I can't reproduce the issue either

Absolutely nothing other than turning the addon off. I had no idea there was even a cache for the addon.

I'll report back when I get around to testing it again, but normally I don't use the chat. I think I used it once in total, not that it's useless, just no one is around when I start posting which is normally at night.

Thanks. I wonder how many people have disabled chat because of the double-back issue... maybe if we fix that more people would use chat too

In my case, I normally assume I screwed something up, which is why I never reported it. Only after someone else mentioned it, I jumped in to confirm there was an issue.

hmm super weird. I'm still gonna try to make it so you have to click into chat to start typing.

[–]magnora7[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

sounds good. I've never ever seen it do otherwise, but apparently somehow that is happening
