<input type='text'>
<input type='text'>

for anyone who is suffering from the same issue you can disable this vscode feature via setting html.mirrorCursorOnMatchingTag just search mirror cursor on matching tag in setting and uncheck the checkbox

@amitbisht511 thanks, this was so annoying I temporarily disabled the whole vim extension until I had time to search for a fix

HTML mirror cursor is an absolutely horrible feature. Was screwing me up for quite a while until I was finally forced to search about it. "On" by default is just an unbelievably bad choice.

@Brade to be fair, I think if you're not using VSCodeVim, it's probably quite useful

[Brade]

I'm not using that, and I can assure you it's still not useful. I often paste class attributes etc to similar open tags, and it kept pasting it all on the end tags as well. I've turned it off now, but I really disagree with the decision to have it "on" by default.

[J-Fields]

Ah interesting; I'd figured it would be smart enough to not copy attributes to the end tag. That is bothersome.

In my case, html.mirrorCursorOnMatchingTag was off by default but I had the https://github.com/formulahendry/vscode-auto-rename-tag extension installed which messed up this vim plugin big time.
