Comment (by ax3yui8stk):

 Thanks for reporting this. The notice is related to a recent change in
 SimplePie 1.9.0, which deprecated fetching multiple feeds using a single
 instance.

 This affects areas in WordPress where multiple RSS feeds are loaded
 together, such as the Dashboard → Home and Dashboard → Updates screens.

 The notice is harmless and doesn’t affect functionality, but it should be
 fixed for compatibility with PHP 8.3 and newer SimplePie versions.

 A patch will be needed to initialize separate SimplePie instances for each
 feed instead of combining them. Marking as needs-patch for now.
