AFAIK the best production-ready CRDT solution for text is Yjs [0], and in some specific cases, the result of the merge might be something unexpected (one example [1]). However, there is research-quality CRDT called Peritext [2] which is specifically designed to handle styled text in an intuitive way, so the merge is more predictable.
