I see this message for the first time:

Capture d’écran 2024-06-23 à 20.37.39.png

It is inserted in the OP (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/757852) but the link leads to nowhere (just the general page of the forum).

In … what ?!?

So I wonder what is the meaning of the message, its intent and use ? Or is it just a forum bug ?

PS: surprisingly, this post appears in Forums general page (https://developer.apple.com/forums/latest), but not in forums feedback (https://developer.apple.com/forums/tags/forums-feedback)

PS2: it appears, but after all the pinned messages which are older. Really confusing… I posted a bug report on this: Jun 23, 2024 at 9:29 PM – FB14024970

While investigating, here is another bug I noticed:

I received an email notifying that my answer was recommended by Apple. Going to the thread https://developer.apple.com/forums//thread/758452?answerId=793464022#793464022, I noticed that the correct answer was, logically, the DTS's answer, not mine which was just for asking for more information.

I reported another bug on the same issue (mail sent as 'Apple recommended' but does not show in the thread).
