I'm demoting this as it doesn't seem worthy of blocking the deploy.

@madmax330 @dylanexpensify this issue was created 2 weeks ago. Are we close to a solution? Let's make sure we're treating this as a top priority. Don't hesitate to create a thread in #expensify-open-source to align faster in real time. Thanks!

[Skalakid]

I can also reproduce it again. After testing the issue will be fixed by this PR inside the react-native-live-markdown library. Inside this PR I changed the way how often and in what way the input structure elements are being updated. Thanks to that the cursor position issues, when component just loads, are being fixed. Here we are bumping the library version in E/App

@madmax330, @dylanexpensify Uh oh! This issue is overdue by 2 days. Don't forget to update your issues!

[Skalakid]

Hey, the PR with the bump has been merged and I can't reproduce this issue now. Can you please verify this on your side, please?

@madmax330, @dylanexpensify 6 days overdue. This is scarier than being forced to listen to Vogon poetry!

[dylanexpensify]
