Hmm I think this is different, it only happens when we paste the name of the emoji like :joy: and it is happening in prod as well, so removing the label and opening it up for proposals.

I ever experienced this issue and solved it. I did use Input Method Service and change the cursor position in Android.
Same way in iOS solved the problem.
