Because of the regex at: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/18645771c86664f1246f0fb599c8265a4cd1d6c0/packages/richtext-lexical/src/field/features/Link/plugins/autoLink/index.tsx#L416

...some pages are broken on safari and script execution stops, it seems to be related to this ongoing safari bug: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51568821/works-in-chrome-but-breaks-in-safari-invalid-regular-expression-invalid-group

Reproduction Steps

I setup a Payload/NextJS app using the richtext lexical editor. When I visit a page that fetches and displays rich text data, the safari console shows the error in the screenshot above.

I guess I'm not sure whether the issue is because of the URL_REGEX or the EMAIL_REGEX.

I'm using Safari Version 15.6 (17613.3.9.1.5)

Tried on beta.67 and it is still an issue

Also worth adding, I'm seeing this in a local dev environment. EDIT: it still exists in prod, but it doesn't stop script execution, instead it just shows an unhandled promise error in the console.

Tried on beta.98 and it is still an issue. Admin panel is inaccessible.

This issue should be fixed in Safari 16.4 or later: https://caniuse.com/js-regexp-lookbehind

Closing this issue, as I think it's reasonable to expect users to be able to upgrade to these versions
