Additional context

[TobiPeterG]

I have the same issue on openSUSE Tumbleweed with GNOME.
When inserting text and pressing the right arrow key when previously text was auto suggested, it gets inserted anyway

this is a known issue of ZSH, usually it can be fixed by setting the $LOCALE properly.

echo "export LANG=en_US.UTF-8" >> .zshenv
echo "export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8" >> .zshenv

This doesn't fix the issue for me with autosuggestions c3d4e57 and zsh 5.9 (x86_64-pc-msys) in Windows Terminal

EDIT: I was able to fix this bug by removing "completion" as an autosuggest strategy in my .zshrc

- ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY=(match_prev_cmd history completion)
+ ZSH_AUTOSUGGEST_STRATEGY=(match_prev_cmd history)

Have you relaunch your terminal after this?

[jathek]

Yes, I relaunched after removing "completion" and the ghost text is gone now. So it is something not working with the "completion" strategy, for me at least.
