This is a problem with the used editor component (CodeMirror 5), see hedgedoc/react-client#437 for details.

HedgeDoc 2.0 is currently work-in-progress and uses CodeMirror 6, which should not have that problem anymore. You can test it at https://hedgedoc.dev. The effort for upgrading CodeMirror 5 to 6 in HedgeDoc 1.x is unreasonably high and as we focus on 2.0 instead, this bug will probably not be resolved in 1.x versions.
