Please set you database collation to utf8mb4 else it is a feature of mysql to cut after a unicode char
This doesn't solve the problem. Here are my updated settings:

Have just gone into article and saved.
Then retried. No change

@zero-24 Database collation is only defining the defaut to be used when newly creating tables or columns without specifying the character set and collation. It does not modify existing tables or columns. Joomla! always does specify it in their create or alter table statements, so changing database default collation is definitely no help. This should be commonly known, but always again I find this useless and wrong "help" here or in the forums.
Thanks so we need to check the actual collation on the content table? @richard67
@jochendaum can you check that and come back to us with the actual collation on the table?
Thanks @richard67 !

Do you have uft8mb4 for your database? See in the Systeminformation
