@ElSeniorMikael can you help provide a reproducible example?

I'm expecting for it to make it a breaking line
I can confirm that I can reproduce the issue in https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/html-react-parser-864-0v3xvs
This bug is coming from html-dom-parser
@ElSeniorMikael can you do this as a workaround?
const text = "toto \r\n toto"
parse(text.replace(/\r/g, "\n"))
Or:
const text = "toto \r\n toto"
parse(text.replace(/\r|\n/g, "<br>"))
See CodeSandbox
It seems that innerHTML strips out carriage returns on the client parser
