non md/txt files opening for external users only

[wiswedel]

Describe the bug
Non md- or txt text-based files like .xml, .py or .json open for editing only for public sharees. Logged in users get stuck with an ever loading spinner.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. As a logged in user, upload a .py or .xml or .json file to Nextcloud (these are the types I tested with, sure there are more)
2. Share the file via public link with editing rights
3. As a sharee, open the public link
4. File opens for editing in Text
5. As logged in user, open the same file

Expected behavior
File opens for editing in Text

Actual behavior

• Text's top bar with sidebar- and closing controls shows
• spinner in the screen's center spins forever

NC 18.0.0
Text 2.0.0

nothing in the logs

Can confirm for NC 18.0.1, Test 2.0.0 with .c .bash .tex and .txt files.

Can confirm for NC 18.0.1, any file containing text, that does not have a file extension of .md/.txt produces this behavior. Although, in my case it is producible regardless of public users or logged in users. Renaming the file with an .md/.txt extension resolves this issue - any party can then view the files contents.

This issue happens also to me with any browser on any desktop client and with tree nextcloud instances. The error started with v18.0.0. I created a new issue #745 with some detailes.

Thanks for the details, but please don't open duplicates on purpose 🤔

I could reproduce, however I'm still not sure why this happens, so this needs some more investigation.

Hi.
Any news about this problem?
It's very useful to edit JSON directly online :-)

Thx!

A fix is in #775 but the backport is still pending #782
