We have an emoji extension that addresses this issue for emojis: tiptap.dev/docs/editor/...

Try creating a flag emoji and backspacing in the playground.

Hope that helps 😅

Glad to hear that Tiptap is finding its way into TYPO3. Great work, @flanger.dev 🙌

Hey! Could you send us a quick email at humans@tiptap.dev so we can take a look at your issue? Thanks :-)

Built with and for the OSS community 🙏

Got feedback? Building something cool?

Upgrade guide → tiptap.dev/docs/guides/...

The UI components and simple editor template are already on 3.0. If you’re using them, you’re already set.

Fixes:
– Better drag-and-drop
– Clean listener teardown
– Jest/ESM bugs resolved
– Smoother multi-image insert

Extensions got love:
– Mention supports multiple triggers
– Math reworked as nodes (way faster)
– Image supports width/height
– YouTube regex is more flexible
– Emoji outputs alt text

API got smarter:
– insertContent doesn’t create ghost nodes
– unmount() for reusing editors
– Typed everything
– DevTools toggle
– Fewer unnecessary transactions = less CPU

⚠️ Breaking changes:
– New packages for Lists, Tables, Text Styles
– UndoRedo renamed
– No more UMD builds (ESM/CJS only)
– considerAnyAsEmpty removed
– Requires @floating-ui/dom@^1.6.0

Highlights:
– New meta-packages (@tiptap/extensions, etc.)
– Menus now use Floating UI (smaller, smarter)
– Static renderer → HTML, Markdown, React
– StarterKit now includes Link, Underline, Lists
– Pro features like Emoji, Math, TOC are OSS
