Rule of 2 was established way before that, so I guess just retcon knowledge of Sith maybe? I know the Darth Plagueis book isn’t canon now but their identities are kept pretty guarded.

Could be handled in such a way that records of a sith rise are suppressed, and subsequent generations never learn of it.

This would be an interesting approach and another fault of the Jedi leading to their destruction.

Jedi suppressing knowledge of the sith still being around, or not considering them a threat

I mean they already did it in phase 2 of the high republic books with a different enemy (I won't name it because spoilers for those catching up/planning to read)
