I use the Outlook web app on MacOS, and selecting text word by word no longer works (shift + option + arrow on a Mac keyboard). This stopped working sometime this weekend. I tried multiple browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari) and multiple Macs (Two different MBAs and one MB Mini). I tried it on a PC and it works fine. It seems that something broken on the web app for Mac users over the weekend.

This is a critical shortcut for things like copying and pasting or deleting. Anyone having the same problem and has an idea of what to do about it?

    This is still an issue for me, with the cmd key specifically. Now, even simple key bindings like cmd+i (for italics) trigger unexpected behavior while drafting text for an email.

    What about cmd+ctrl+space = emoji keyboard, which broke at the same time. Has this been addressed yet?

    Same here, still triggering indents in bulleted lists and also now the Command-arrow boots me from the editor altogether.

    In addition, formatting shortcuts (command-U for underline, for example) and things like command-enter to send, work only about half the time

    Anyone got a TamperMonkey fix for the new errors?

    That's the same behaviour I'm experiencing.

    So, still having the bug.
