Hmm I believe this should be able to be investigated by contributors so I'll make it External, but at the moment I'm having trouble reproducing - I logged in on my Android device, mashed the keyboard for a long time, didn't see any slowdown 🤔 It seems this might have to happen in a HT account, even thought it seems like @mvtglobally tried testing on a HT account already, right?
