Freeform syncing makes my board a mess.

I experienced the Freeform bug of missing words and characters after syncing the board to iCloud. But that is not the worst. Yesterday, I filled a Freeform board with notes on my iPad mini. But when I tried to sync with my Mac's Freeform app via iCloud, everything start to overlap each other, and many notes are unreadable in this case.


Just to clarify, everything on the board was written on the iPad mini, and the board was empty on the Mac when I opened Freeform and try to sync my notes. After adding a text box in an empty space on that board with the Mac, all the handwritten notes suddenly start to overlap.


iPad mini OS version: 16.3

MacBook Pro OS version: 13.1


Is anyone else experiencing this bug or is this just a coincidence? Are there solutions to this? At this point, I'm considering if I should still use freeform in the future.
