I have a similar problem it seems. I am using roughly:

if( have_rows('related_items_list') ):
			
 	// loop through the rows of data
    while ( have_rows('related_items_list') ) : the_row();
		echo '<div class="related-item">';	
        // display a sub field value
        $postobject = get_sub_field('related_pages');

        echo '<div class="related-item-img" style="background-image: url('. $thumbnail  .')"><a href="'.get_permalink($postobject->ID).'" aria-hidden="true"></a></div>';
		echo '<div class="related-details"><h3><a href="'.get_permalink($postobject->ID).'">'.$postobject->post_title.'</a></h3>';
		echo '<div class="related">'.$postobject->post_excerpt.'</div>';
		echo '</div></div>';	
		
    endwhile;
	wp_reset_postdata();
endif;

and the final error it throws is roughly:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: strpos(): Argument #1 ($haystack) must be of type string, WP_Post given in .... /wp-includes/shortcodes.php:209

it does this every time i try to use get_sub_field in a repeater.

This all worked fine in PHP 7 and is failing in PHP 8
