Description

Describe the bug
I was trying the Blocknote editor in my project on my phone, but I noticed the dragging did not work on mobile.

I can see the drag handle, but I can't get it to work.

I then tried one of the official examples on my phone which also had the same problem.

To Reproduce

  1. Go to one of the examples on your phone: https://www.blocknotejs.org/examples/basic/default-blocks
  2. Try dragging an element

Misc

  • Node version:
  • Package manager:
  • Browser: Chrome on iPhone 13 Mini
  • I'm a sponsor and would appreciate if you could look into this sooner than later 💖
