    $: {
        color: "white",
        backgroundColor: background,
        "& ::selection": { backgroundColor: selection },
        "& *": {
            fontFamily: "Fira Code",
            fontVariantLigatures: "common-ligatures",

        },
        caretColor: cursor
    }, { dark: true })

I’m not sure what would cause this—there’s nothing in the editor explicitly turning off ligatures. Maybe your browser disables them in contenteditable by default because of cursor placement issues.

you may be right : 1154751 - Arabic text ligatures are not rendered correctly when contenteditable=“true” - chromium (monorail-prod.appspot.com)
