Hello,
I have run into an issue after the latest update `3.3.0.beta1-dev`. The update ran without a hitch and everything looks OK - as long as you are logged in.
For anonymous users the start page looks fine. But there is an issue loading a topics body - you can see the title, the scrollbar is there to scroll through all the posts, but the text is not beeing loaded:
The error message I can see in my Browser console is:
> **Chrome** :
> `retort.js:48 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'postStream')`
> Firefox
> `Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: this.model is undefined`
Complete trace:
>
Can someone point me in a direction on how to fix this issue?

I’m afraid [Retort](https://meta.discourse.org/t/retort-a-reaction-style-plugin-for-discourse/35903) is currently broken and would need to be removed from your `app.yml` before rebuilding your site again.

Thank you for your reply!
Do you know if this might break something? Or will the Emote Reactions just disappear from posts?

The data should remain in the backend, but all the functionality will be removed. So the emote reactions will not be displayed on the posts, but if it gets fixed and reinstalled they should then come back again:

> Indeed. Retort work is actively underway. I should be testing with @merefield soon! 🙂

Thanks again - rebuild worked and looks like the issue is resolved 😀

> With huge thanks pray to the sponsorship of @Hifihedgehog and the community of: [https://forum.tabletpc.review/](https://forum.tabletpc.review/) This has been brought back into compatibility and is no longer broken with 3.2. NB: as per The Team and Sam, it is intended that the Reactions plugin will take on the additional features of this plugin (mainly the ability for multiple reactions) at some point in the future and hopefully (not yet confirmed) this will include provision of a migration tool.

I just got pinged as well 😀
But I think I will go with the named alternative then:

I’m going to be looking after this plugin for a short time, so I’ll take a look!

But the recommendation to switch is valid? I liked Retort 😀 would not change otherwise.

I’ve raised a PR to Retort to fix the issue (and another I discovered).
The advice remains the same, its up to you when to switch.
