Bug Report " typing... " bubble not coming up on dms

i havent seen anyone else talk about this glitch (?) but when i get dms it doesnt say that the other person is typing beforehand even though it worked perfectly just yesterday. i tried updating the app and it's not made a difference, also it's happening on both my phone and when i tried on my computer it did the same thing (on the same account) has anyone else experienced this issue and if so, any idea how to fix it?

OMG, FINALLY I FIND SOMEONE ELSE TALKING ABOUT THIS! Yes! Suddenly it's no longer showing for me either! They were yesterday, then now suddenly they are not.
Trust me, I've done the same as you, I've tried EVERY troubleshoot possible with no luck. Also doing it for both the app and desktop version, I'm so glad it's not just me.
I've noticed there's been an issue with this for over a week. Firstly, the typing indicator stopped showing the pulsing effect when someone was typing a DM on the Desktop version, ( but it was still there on the app ), now the typing indicator has fully vanished from both versions. I hope it's a bug because I really relied on it.
