Bug.

What is the current behavior? When typing text in a draftJS editor, for example on the homepage of draftjs.org, text disappears as soon as a user types a space or enter.

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem. You can use this jsfiddle to get started: https://jsfiddle.net/stopachka/m6z0xn4r/. It is reproducible on the homepage of draftjs.org

What is the expected behavior? Text should not disappear.

Which versions of Draft.js, and which browser / OS are affected by this issue? Did this work in previous versions of Draft.js? Latest version of draft.js.

So far I’ve been able to reproduce this behavior on:

Samsung devices running Android 6.
Google Nexus 5 running Android 6.
Google Pixel running Android 7.1.2.

The bug is not present on Samsung with android 5.1.1

@flarnie the Draft.js homepage is still giving the misleading impression that this is a cross-browser solution, which is causing many people to invest time into this library and then find unexpectedly that it doesn’t work for them. Draft.js doesn’t work on the most popular web browser in the world. Why is this still being marketed this way?
