You may experience data loss due to the following issues caused by incorrect usage of CRDTs libraries, regardless of whether you're using Loro, Automerge, or Yjs. Here is how to avoid them:

The overwrite behavior occurs because the concurrent creation of child containers results in different container IDs, preventing the automatic merging of their contents. The solution is:

1. When containers might be initialized concurrently, prefer initializing them at the root level rather than as nested containers

2. When using map containers: - If possible, initialize all child containers during the map container's initialization. - Avoid concurrent creation of child containers with the same key in the map container to prevent overwrites
