I recieved the notice that the Media 8.x-1.x-dev is no longer supported and to check the project homepage. On the project homepage I saw:

Drupal 8 branch of this module is abandoned. In #2831274: Bring Media entity module to core as Media module core adopted media namespace to add support for full-featured media entities. In case you are using media on your sites you need to uninstall it and remove it from the codebase before updating to Drupal 8.4.

Since I only used this module to upload 1 file. I went to uninstall and it prompted to remove the Gallery View after it spins I see a white screen with:

The website encountered an unexpected error. Please try again later.

I am new to Drupal and am not sure how to proceed, but I am glad I did this on the dev version of my website.

Gallery removal prompt:

Media is in core now.
Uninstalling the pre-core version causes wsod

Version: 8.4.x-dev » 8.3.x-dev

Actually this is probably more of a 8.3.x issue

@joseph.olstad the Issue Summary clearly states that the issue appears when uninstalling the "Media" contrib module. Are you able to reproduce the issue using only the core Media module? If not, please do not move the issue back to core. (If you can, please post the steps to reproduce on a clean install).

The 1.x branch of Media Entity contrib is not compatible with Media (core) in Drupal 8.4. This confusion will probably be reduced once #2896427: Prevent enabling the "media" module if "media_entity" contrib 1.x is already enabled and #2894615: Prevent the 1.x branch from being installed when core Media module is enabled. are fixed. In the meantime, people should really do what the instructions on the module page indicate:

In case you are using media on your sites you need to uninstall it and remove it from the codebase before updating to Drupal 8.4.

The problem is, people CANNOT uninstall media 8.x.

Uninstall creates WSOD

So send some of your 8.x experts over to fix this please.

We need assistance on this issue from someone familiar with 8.x.

Please see https://www.drupal.org/node/2889681. I'm not completely sure the issue here is a duplicate but you could try manual removal of the .yml files mentioned in the other post before uninstalling.
