Is there a blocker for this. This is a bad UX even without gathering a lot of interest. I waste so much time correcting formatting issues due to extra lines added every day.

Please fix this.

Always get a double space between lines, nothing changed for me.

It is for me, in Jira Cloud.

Here is an example, cursor is two spaces down with one carriage return:

(edit: cannot attach images, my apologies)

Double-line spacing is the exceptional need, not the rule.

We started with Jira en this waste of screen space is really annoying me. I cannot understand why this is not solved yet. If I work on my laptop I have to scroll like hell. 

Please, please, please fix this! Having to shift+enter for every single line makes the already-tedious job of creating tickets even more tedious.

Fixing this would be great! I kind of don't even get why it does this in the first place

Double spacing (+non-markdown ability) drives me nuts so have always reverted to using the old view...now that's getting binned. Please remove the auto-line space as its hideous when having to make lists of things. Make them twice as long! If folk want an extra line between lists or whatever, they just have to tap enter again, simple and flexible. Terribly thought-out UX.

Agreed, having to select Shift adds more time to UX. Baaaad design 

Please remove this ASAP. 

Why did anyone think this was a good idea. It looks terrible. If I want a double space I'll add one, it shouldn't ever be the default.

+1, in my case workaround won't work, since we use automated table generation. Jira won't process line breaks, so we manually create a new line (enter), but Jira creates double line and breaks the formatting. Please look into this.

Issue also addressed in : https://jira.atlassian.com/projects/JRACLOUD/issues/JRACLOUD-75312?filter=allopenissues

Holding Shift + Enter is not an acceptable resolution because it doesn't work when copy pasting text from mails or other source into comments.

THE LINE SPACE MUST BE REMOVED.

Thanks

How is this possible ? Please fix this !

I prefer the old editor.  This is unusable.

To avoid double space just hold shift down when pressing return/enter.

Wow... How do I get this glorious "Visual" versus "Text" functionality in our Jira instance?? The "Text" mode is exactly what I've been looking for!!

please fix it

P.S. if you switch from Visual to Text it doesn't
put
additional
newline.
