  1. Ensure that the Text Selection tool is picked.
  2. Select an emoji in a message.
  3. Copy and paste it a couple of times. Nothing should show up in the message field.
  4. Write down some filler text in the message field.
  5. Copy and paste all the contents of the message field a couple of times.

Expected Behavior

  • The filler text would be pasted into the message field with no graphical errors like in this linked image.

Actual Behavior

  • If the emoji was pasted enough times during step 3, you should see the text overlap itself within the message field, as demonstrated in this linked video.

Additional Notes

  • This bug still persisted after changing the Font Engine, the Chat Font and the Chat emoji size.
  • Haven't been able to test if this bug occurs on Slack, hence why I've only marked it as a Discord bug.
