I have noticed this several times while editing a document, Part of my changes are lost. It seems to happen after a sync to cloud.

I also noticed that 'Conflict' version of the document appear. I am not editing this document on the other instances I have installed so there should not be any conflict.

I will close the app on my mac an iphone to see if this stops the issue. But this should not happen.

I'm finding the same thing happens on the Windows desktop version as well as the Linux desktop. (v0.10.39). It's harder to tell, but I think Android is doing something similar.

I have the problem, with "Conflict" version of the document, even though I am working only on one device at the time. Could there be an option disable sync after every edit or change? I already set the "Synchronization interval" option to "Disabled". That didn't help.

Yes this is big annoyance on the desktop app - I'm planning to remove the auto-saving feature and make it a manual save as that should work much better (like on the mobile and terminal apps).

Ok I think I've finally fixed this annoying race condition in 78ce10ddf08ed400f4f4537c41d602a34f074701. It will be part of the next release.

Closing this as the next version should fix it.
