Good to have information

Additional comments

Actually I don't know what this warning message really means (I don't have it with Akeeba Backup or Admin Tools on the same sites for example). And I see nothing in the readme.md nor on the Release Page about supported/non supported versions or about mysqli.

So what can I do to fix this? And what does happen if I can't fix this?

You found a Joomla bug. Actually, there are two bugs. First of all, Joomla does not check the supported database family correctly (it tries to match a lowercase to an uppercase string and fails) and then it prints out an error message using the database connector type instead of the database server type.

I am closing this issue and reporting this to Joomla.

Txs a lot Nicholas, But so does it mean that everything is fine with Social Magick and my sites ? (total false positive)

Nothing is wrong with your site. It's just Joomla: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/38117

There's a military term for that: SNAFU (Situation Normal; All F... Up)
