It's a new CSS mode enabled by default via text-decoration-skip-ink:auto
https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/CSS/text-decoration-skip-ink

You can suggest the site developers to add text-decoration-skip-ink:none to their CSS.
Some web developers consider it to be a more reasonable default for links, the others like the new behavior.

lge-systemwebview@ -- Thanks for reporting this issue. Tested on reported Chrome #65.0.3325.109 using LG-H860 (LG G5) Android 6.0.1 and Pixel Android 8.1 and was not able to reproduce the issue by following the below steps:

1. Launch Chrome.
2. Navigate to mail.google.com
3. Tap on "Compose" button.
4. Type an invalid word, eg.: Typgyhy
5. Observed that a straight line is displayed.

Note: Tried on "Desktop Site" mode as well.

Could you please confirm whether the issue is seen specific to the device and OS or did we miss any steps.

Attached screenshot for reference.

Thanks!

We checked the behavior in below devices:

LGq6 Android version 7.1.1

LGXCam Android version 6.0

In the devices broken line behavior for underline is observed in latest chrome version 65.0.3325.109

The same behaviour is not observed in previous chrome versions.

Please find the attached images.

This behavior is not device or OS dependent.
Behavior is observed in latest chrome version.

As comment 1 says, this is a new feature in chrome with a default value that is not the same as the previous behaviour. Sites can configure this in their CSS if they wish. This is working as intended.
