I already set the meta tag for my page in RootLayout level, i already deploy my site in vercel. But when i try to find my site, the description looks weird, why do they show the text on my Footer component as description instead of my meta.description?

this is the structure in html element from inspect element
<head><meta charset="utf-8"><meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"><meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"><link rel="icon" href="/assets/404.png" media="(prefers-color-scheme: light)"><meta name="google-site-verification" content="oRt0bqFlzLy7SJcg"><title>Kuman</title><meta name="description" content="Kuliah Mandiri Ala-ala"><link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" sizes="16x16"><meta name="next-size-adjust"><script src="/_next/static/chunks/polyfills-78c92fac7aa8fdd8.js" nomodule=""></script></head>

If you've recently updated, google can take some time to actually update it.

It might be showinng the description it set when you had no meta tag
