Random lines of text getting copied in the CMS

    Hey,

    I encountered this unusual bug recently were random lines of text (I.E. body copy in articles) are getting duplicated inside the CMS while I’m editing it.

    It happened on the blog in question here but also in a totally different Google Chrome profile I have set up for a completely different WordPress website.

    The other website I only have editor’s access to, but it’s a WordPress.org website. This one (freedomlancers.com) is a WordPress.com site. It happens on both.

    Can’t find anything about it on the Internet. Can’t think what might be randomly copying the lines of text. It seems to happen sometimes when I press Enter to produce a carriage return between sentences but I can’t replicate it reliably.

    I just go to look at my carefully proofread copy to see that I’ve blinked away from the screen for a second and the CMS has duplicated this whole line while I wasn’t looking and after I’d made any edits.

    Help appreciated.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
