React Hook Warnings for async function in useEffect: useEffect function must return a cleanup function or nothing

I was trying the useEffect example something like below:

useEffect(async () => {
    try {
        const response = await fetch(`https://www.reddit.com/r/${subreddit}.json`);
        const json = await response.json();
        setPosts(json.data.children.map(it => it.data));
    } catch (e) {
        console.error(e);
    }
}, []);

and I get this warning in my console. But the cleanup is optional for async calls I think. I am not sure why I get this warning. Linking sandbox for examples. https://codesandbox.io/s/24rj871r0p
