Bug with ChatGPT web ui, enter key no longer works properly

I am encountering an intermittent issue, that occurs across multiple computers. These are the specific bugs I have been experiencing:

  1. Pressing Enter after typing a prompt sometimes starts regenerating the previous response, instead of just submitting the new query, this causes a “One request at a time” error to appear for the new query.
  2. Shift+Enter does not work as expected. When the above bug occurs, it is usually accompanied by Shift+Enter submitting the query, instead of creating a new line in the prompt.

Steps to reproduce:
Pressing enter to submit a query, or pressing Shift+Enter to create a new line in the prompt.

This started happening about 2 months ago, and has intermittently, but frequently, occurred ever since.

i am encountering this bug also.
it was working an hour ago but not anymore and the only fix i have found was to restart my whole pc.

the width of the browser viewport determines the enter key action.
