Description
Expected behavior
I expected to be able to see the full text of my "About me" while editing it.
Actual behavior
The "About me" text field is a short field, like "name". This means it's not possible to see the full text.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
Head to My Site > Me > Profile and tap "About me"
Note the text field is not long.
It would be better as a paragraph field.
Compare Android to iOS:
Tested on Samsung Galaxy S21, Android 12, JP Android 21.1-rc-3
Found during usability exploration: pdcxQM-1ff-p2
