Describe the bug hi i was using this fork and bumped into this problem i would appreciate a fix or some guide in what am i doing wrong, thanks alot, the bug is this:

when i write over the initial placeholder text it doesnt deletes it and writes "on top" of the text and error when submitting said text because the text submitted is empty see screenshot

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to a form with a textarea with easymde on chrome or firefox on android
  2. Touch the textarea and write sometext
  3. Submit form
  4. See error while writing the text or while submitting the form with a restriction to not allow empty text

Expected behavior The placeholder text should be deleted, and the submitted text should not be empty server side

I think this is a codemirror issue, EasyMDE does nothing with the placeholder except pass it to the codemirror editor.

I've noticed that tapping on the entered text does remove the placeholder.

In fact, I think is a keyboard/mobile browser issue^^' Because the keyboard doesn't send the input before we press space.
