Description

Editing on Android Nexus has become much more jarring recently. When typing the editor jumps around as demonstrated in this gif:

Sometimes the text I am editing is not even visible on the screen.
This bug has resulted in me abandoning various edits.

Device information:
Android 6.0.1
Nexus 5

Yeah, this is irritating, and seems specific to Android; I can't replicate on iOS. Possibly it's related to T129360: Virtual keyboard hides the text in iOS mobile wikitext editing?
