When I set allow\_uncategorized\_topics to false, “Uncategorized” category doesn’t show on PC but show on mobile.

Seems like an improbable regression. Have you reloaded on mobile?

Thanks for your replying.  
Yes, and it occured with incognito tab or “Empty Cache and Hard Reload” on PC Chrome devtool with device mode.

No repro here on beta 11+65.

Do you have posts which are still uncategorized? If you do they need to be categorised correctly for this to work.

Thanks for your idea.  
I have one default system post and it works well after deleting it!

But why it works on PC without deleting system post haha
