What issue do you have?
The blinking cursor (or caret if you like) disappear in blank lines. It shows in lines with text, but when I move it using either the mouse or the keyboard to a blank line, it disappears.
Had to revert to 3.1.20

I'm having the same issue, only for me it's always at the beginning of a line whether it's empty or not that the cursor doesn't show

A similar behavior happens on 3.1.22 Windows version: the cursor at the beginning of a line is really smaller but not invisible

I see that there was a commit that allegedly got merged. Does anyone know when this will make to to the official release?
Joplin is now hardly operable without the mouse.
Thank you.
Yes, I second that. It happens to me as well (cursor is not visible) but only in the beginning of a line.
In any case, I hope this gets fixed quickly because for me at least, it makes it very hard to use.

I am seeing the same behavior on macOS version of v3.1.22
cursor disappears when on a blank line
cursor blinking and visible when on line with text or in between chars on line of text
Rolled back to v3.1.20 and cursor behaves as expected again.
Joplin v3.1.22 (prod, darwin)
macOS v13.7
Backup: 1.4.2
Jira Issue: 2.1.0
Menu items, Shortcuts, Toolbar icons: 1.1.0
Note overview: 1.5.4
Search & Replace: 2.2.0
Templates: 2.2.0
If downgrading is too much of a hassle, here is a workaround: (For desktop version)
Options > Style > Maximum display width in editor
Set the width to a smaller value in this item.
Confirmed the issue is fixed with 3.1.23

As a temporary fix while awaiting the official release, I added the following override to my userchrome.css file, and I have cursor back.
.cm-line {
padding-left: 1px !important;
}
No need for a temporary fix, a link to the official release is two posts above yours.
