'React remove the "create-react-app" description

I'm struggling with removing the nasty description of the create-react-app boiler plate: Web site created using create-react-app.

As stated here and here I have replaced the <title> and <meta name="description" content="foo"> of the index.html.

Here is what my file looks like:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" />
    <title>ABC_APP</title>
    <meta name="description" content="The bestest APP ever" />
    <link rel="icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/mwicon.ico" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
    <meta name="theme-color" content="#000000" />
    <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/logo192.png" />
    <link rel="manifest" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/manifest.json" />
  </head>
  <body>
    <noscript>You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.</noscript>
    <div
      id="root"
      class="d-flex flex-column justify-content-between"
      style="min-height: 100vh;"
    ></div>
  </body>
</html>

However instead of displaying the description I requested (The bestest APP ever), it still displays the default description (Web site created using create-react-app) - see screenshot below url hidden:

The title has been correctly replaced.

Any idea where else I can look to remove the description when sharing ?

Edit: When I search my app directory for mentions of the description, it cannot find any.

I am building a Docker image from my app before pushing and running it on my server. I thought this might be the reason (something stayed in an intermediary container or whatever) so I tried to remove all versions of that image and rebuild it from scratch. It didn't help.
