This just started recently possibly after an update. Now when I get an incoming text via Textra, it actually places a bubble on the home screen that I have to swipe down and remove. I'm still getting the notification in the top which is ok. Any other P6P users that use Textra have this issue? I've wrote to their support, but no answer yet and their knowledge base didn't help. Like I said, it just started within the last week or so. Both the app and my P6P are up to date.

That's Android's chat bubble feature (Floating Notifications). Not sure if it's there because I don't have a Pixel, but chances are the option is still somewhere in your Notifications settings. If that's not the case (i.e. Textra isn't enabled or you don't have the feature enabled at all), then Textra should have that option in an in-app setting (kinda like FB Messenger).

Go to Settings>Notifications>Bubbles​ (in the system settings, not the Textra settings) and turn that off.
