Thanks for reaching out here, @rubsel. We are sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with the notice that appears in the browser’s console while using the WordPress new widget block editor.
I am afraid to say that I was unable to reproduce the relevant notice on my end while using the latest version of Yoast SEO v16.7 alongside the new WordPress v5.8 while the default 2021 theme is active.
So, can you please confirm whether the issue persists when all the non-Yoast plugins are disabled and the default 2021 theme is active on your website?
Please test this on your development or staging site, if you have one. If not, we recommend using the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin. This plugin has a troubleshooting mode, which does not affect normal visitors to your site.
If you’re unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we’d like to point you to a step-by-step guide that will walk you through the process: How to check for plugin conflicts

Hi there!
Just checked it again with all plugins deactivated except Yoast SEO and the Notice still is on the widget blockeditor screen.
It’s just a notice so nothing major. Also here is a screenshot of how the notice encounters on my local setup with MAMP Pro.

I also found this while checking the Notice ticket/53569
Hope this helps!
P.S. I noticed I added my local path to the notice on here, is there a way I can remove that or that you as the Plugin Supporter can edit my initial post? Thanks!

Hi @rubsel
Did you also test this with a default WP theme such as TwentyTwenty? You mentioned this is regarding the new Widget Block Editor. Is it under the WP admin dashboard > Appearance > Customize > Widgets?
We tried testing it out (WP 5.8 and Yoast SEO 16.7) and were still unable to reproduce the issue though.
Regarding your other concern, we aren’t able to edit the content in your initial post. You may have to contact one of the moderators to make this request – https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/#deleting-editing-posts

Hi Michael,
Yes i’ve tested this on a clean install, first without, then with Yoast SEO 16.7 activated as the only plugin. Again it was in WP5.8. Its under the dashboard widget screen not in the Customizer.
Tested it with TwentyNineteen, TwentyTwenty and TwenteTwentOne. WP_DEBUG defined true, to show the Notice.
