There is no guarantee that the Element of DOM has the remove() function.It's a browser problem.

If you want to delete it, you can quickly delete the child element by referring to the parent element.
If you overwrite removeChild or textContent ·innerText ·innerHTML with null, the child element disappears.
Excerpts the answers of the head office SO, but it would be easier to create a function and erase it.

function removeElement(element){
  element&element.parentNode&element.parentNode.removeChild(element);
}

setTimeout(function(){
  removeElement( document.getElementById("goodbye"));
},1000);

<div onclick="removeElement(this)">Clickable</div>
<divid="goodbye"> Initialize </div>
