Additional info

Also had same problem on a System with 23.0.3

[Aonodensetsu]

I have this problem since I installed, every version has it as far as my own copy goes; I've seen it mentioned years before but no solution that I have been able to find.

[SKB-CGN]

Same here!

[throny]

Additionally, this is something I saw when deploying the official docker image without modifications:

moment is deprecated: please ship your own, this will be removed in Nextcloud 20

Interesting then that it's still appearing in Hub 3 (NC 25).

[davkar3n]

same for me!

[nicokaiser]

At least the deprecation warnings should be removed. There are hundereds of them in the console, which not only makes Nextcloud look very unprofessional, but also they are simply wrong:
"this will be removed in Nextcloud 20" did not happen, since the warning is still there in Nextcloud 25.

The deprecated modules should either really be removed (might possibly break a lot of things) or the warning should be removed.

A workaround I've done on my install to make things not suck so hard:

Search for, in dist/core-main.js, the following function:

function(){void 0===window.TESTING&&console.warn.apply(console,arguments)}

Replace that function with this empty function:

function(){}

Performance is noticeably improved by not getting hundreds or thousands of jQuery deprecation warnings when using News.

Is that the right way to fix it? No. Is it effective? Seems so.

Hi, please update to 24.0.9 or better 25.0.3 and report back if it fixes the issue. Thank you!

My goal is to add a label like e.g. 25-feedback to this ticket of an up-to-date major Nextcloud version where the bug could be reproduced. However this is not going to work without your help. So thanks for all your effort!

If you don't manage to reproduce the issue in time and the issue gets closed but you can reproduce the issue afterwards, feel free to create a new bug report with up-to-date information by following this link: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug%2C0.+Needs+triage&template=BUG_REPORT.yml&title=%5BBug%5D%3A+

[bhtooefr]

To be clear, my install had the issue on 25.0.3.

[szaimen]

Okay, thanks!
