Why does my keyboard disappear when replying to comments on Instagram

[Smidge710]

I have a galaxy s9+ and its running the latest software available.

Whenever I try to reply to comments on Instagram my keyboard opens up for a split second then disappears.(this happens with Fleksy and the Samsung keyboard)
This does not happen if I just try tv post a comment, post my own pictures, or use private messages.
I also have not found this problem with any other app.
I have tried wiping all data and cache for both the Instagram app and my keyboard.
I tried uninstalling Instagram and reinstalling it. That did not work either.

Having the same issue. Some times it works and some times it doesn't.

I commented on a photo. Then there was a reply. When I tried to reply again the keyboard kept closing. This only happens with Instagram. I am going to open an issue with Instagram.

Yes I've had the same problem!

I've found that if you pull down the notification shade down you can see the text
