Is this happening to other people? Is it expected to be resolved in a later release?

I believe that’s coming from a theme component or plugin. I’m pretty sure that it’s been updated in all official plugins and theme components.

The same message should appear in the browser JS console when you create/reply to a topic. In theory, that browser console message should tell you the name of the plugin triggering the message 🤞

Well, that was easy to debug. Added a couple of breakpoints and I believe I found the culprit:
> [@Elections Plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/elections-plugin/68521):
>
> Repo: [GitHub - angusmcleod/discourse-elections · GitHub](https://github.com/angusmcleod/discourse-elections) This uses the Polls plugin as a base and adds controls and features specific to running elections. Enabling and Settings Elections are administered by “Election Admins”. By default, election admins are site admins. All moderators can be made election admins by toggling the elections\_admin\_moderator site setting. To do: allow any user to be designated an ‘Election Admin’. Elections can be enabled on a category basis in Category Setting…
I’ll message the dev to let em know the plugin is throwing errors and shit:
