This just showed up on our forum, is it a new “feature”? How can it be disabled?

Looks like a new feature on Discourse to me

I can reproduce this on Meta as well, so something is happening.
Note: If you can’t reproduce it, view the forum in mobile view, then open the chat

Is this what broke everything?
Wow you are already running it 
There’s been some issue and the commit has been split in two. Should be fixed in the next hours

Is there a way to disable/hide it for now (maybe with a theme component)?

Add this to your theme:
.sidebar__panel-switch-button {
display: none;
}

That’s nice to know (at first I thought it was a staff prank, and I was confused when I didn’t see anything in logs)

Will that make the non-chat sidebar sections visible when chat is in fullscreen?

No, but the fix for this is already merged.

Im still working on few bugs reports about this right now, so it’s possible there are more fixes in next hours.

Will we be able to use the old layout eventually? I tend to check whether there are new messages in specific channels while reading posts, and being unable to see the channel list while looking at topics makes that impossible.
