Search bar detected as a credit card form
I have been encountering this for the first time some months ago, and since then every couple weeks.
It seems that something in osu-web makes the browser think that the search input is a credit card form, or there is something wrong with the browser itself, which after all these months I rather doubt.
Im using the latest version of Edge on both PC and phone. I have heard of another user with a similar experience, also on Edge. While Edge is based on Chromium, I had heard by another user that this never happened to them using Chrome.
My guess is that browsers use some heuristics to detect non-attributed inputs, and something in the HTML makes the browser consider this as a credit card input, but only rarely, which is strange and very troublesome to debug in any way.
It's kinda hard to try because I won't disable all my extensions for days or maybe weeks until it happens again. But its just your usual ublock, osu pp extension, youtube plus, cookie blocker etc., nothing out of the ordinary. I'm not sure if extensions can even cause this. In the HTML, there are no attributes to mark credit card forms whatsoever.
It'd be helpful to somehow figure out a way to reproduce it, but I'm not sure how.
