After getting this error message as seen, I just try to press anything, like the arrow keys, space, c, and my trackpad. After a few seconds, the error message disappears but my pieces keep flying to the right side. According to a solution, that has already been suggested, it should be fixed by tapping the right movement key, but that does not fix my problem.

It's Zen Mode, in case it's important.

Actually I noticed it will often say "out of focus" and then it just holds onto the last tapped button, and i always have to exit the game to reset it

something on your computer is taking focus away from tetr.io

now try going away from tetr.io while holding a movement key, then coming back

#

the typical way to fix this is just.....pressing the movement key again, even though it's still "active"

lol

yeah this is kinda a problem with your computer, not the game. some application(s) are taking focus away without your involvement, so you're encouraged to figure that out

I think I found out what the problem was
I'm using microsoft edge and for a long time, i had a feature enabled, that i didn't even know existed (caret-browsing), and with that i can scroll through websites by using the arrow keys, which are also used in tetr.io, i've disabled it, so i hope it's working now
