A new version of Disable Messages has been released on the same day Drupal 9 has been released. This version fully supports Drupal 9. With this release, the module chose to go with the fully semantic versioning model, which means, version 2.0.0 supports Drupal Core 8.8.3 or a higher version. The 8.x-1.0 release will be there for some more time to support older versions. The 2.0.0 release mainly removes the deprecated code and uses the new solution that is supported by Drupal 9.

Congratulations on your decision to migrate to Drupal 9. This is going to be one of the best decisions you’ve made as a technology leader. As you’d be aware, since the release of Drupal 8 in 2015, Drupal has been considered a leader in the object-oriented, enterprise-class, modern web content management framework. Now that Drupal 9 is also released in June 2020, the Drupal community has kept its word and has proven that the version upgrade to the new version is a walk in the park.
