I suspect itβs the container for the comment textarea getting left behind after submission, where the vertical misalignment is the top+bottom padding of the container, because Android uses a different rendering engine for PWAs which follows slightly different rules in its box model, especially WRT flexbox.

Using Android 13. Heres how it looks normally
Yeah I've been seeing this bug for years
Don't even need to post, just opening a reply can cause it as soon as the main screen is in the background. Also have been observing it for the last few months (latest Android versios).
I do wonder whether there are any people without curved display who observe this, it seemed like a mix of that and what Septimaeus has mentioned.
Edit: I always fail to recreate the issue after closing and reopening Voyager, however it generally seems to happen only after some time of app being open (not sure active scrolling through content is even necessary), at least 15-20 min from my perspective... so in that time something happens that makes android/Voyager forget appropriate app window scaling.
In that case my guess is wrong, or at least off, because that sounds like an orphaned component, or perhaps a logic misfire corrupting the state with the effect of partially activating a notification tray or something of the sort.
In the worst case, it could be a viewport dim calculation bug that has nothing to do with Voyager. IME those can persist for a long time, forcing developers to work around it.
If the behavior can be reproduced in a browser, you could use the built in devtools to narrow it down quickly.
Happens for me too since the last update
