Matlab 2021b is unstable on MacBook Pro 2019

I cannot even put text into a script using the Matlab editor. The text goes to the command window.

This must be a problem for a lot of people but I can't seem to find anything on it.

i don't have a solution, but this happens on windows (win11) too sometimes. It happens so rarely that I just restart matlab and then it's OK.

Thanks Andres, no amount of rebooting helps me.....
