Hi @severus-tux 👋

Hmm, I haven't seen this one before. I've made a change to our jekyll-watch plugin that hopefully fixes this, if you delete your Gemfile.lock and reinstall I think you should be alright. Otherwise, upgrading your Ruby version might also help since this seems to be a transient bug.

Hope those help! Feel free to re-open this if the problem persists.

I tried removing the Gemfile.lock and reinstalling. I updated my npm and ruby as well. The error still persists.

npm: 8.3.1
ruby: ruby 3.1.0p0 (2021-12-25 revision fb4df44d16) [x86_64-linux]
