Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.

What I'm seeing is attached as an image

Roughly looks like:
* 2026-02-02 Monday
| Description | Time | Jira/Tags | Notes |
| Reviewing PRs | 11:00-12:00 | | |
| Entering time in Rippling/Jira | 12:00-12:30 | BUS | |
| Fixing command recorder | 12:30- (-15m) | <redacted> | |
| <redacted> | 30330303 | <redacted> | |
| | | | |
The actual contents of the file are:
* 2026-02-02 Monday
| Description | Time | Jira/Tags | Notes |
| Reviewing PRs | 11:00-12:00 | | |
| Entering time in Rippling/Jira | 12:00-12:30 | BUS | |
| Fixing command recorder | 12:30- (-15m) | <redacted> | |
| <redacted> | 23232323 30330303 | <\redacted

Reproducible test case:
Opening the file and trying to type in the time column on the line that
says redacted with the cursor located exactly on the 2nd character of that
column. (i.e. right after the space in "| ") will write invisible text.
Text is only then visible when saving and killing the buffer and then
reloading it. You also have to click the character with the mouse and
shift-tab to get back to that spot won't reliably work, but it will work
sometimes.
