Testing locally with git bisect, seems like a regression from ccc75be02c (for T398827) in mw/core. cc @Hokwelum @Krinkle FYI

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to reproduce on beta, but I couldn’t on my localhost. Is there a way to enable the "Editing Mode" option locally?

I believe that's $wgVisualEditorUseSingleEditTab = true;

Thank you!
