Revealing mistake: When the little robot is pursuing the ghost dragon, there's a group of bystanders watching the filming. One of them, on the far left, wearing a white T-shirt, is even recording everything with his phone. Sure it could be part of the movie, but the man is taking a picture at the point where the camera and film goes team are not where the dragon is. (00:06:53)
Suggested correction: I mean, I think you could make a very compelling argument that, in the context of the film, those are simply people watching and recording the giant ghost-dragon flying around and the Ghostbusters chasing it.

Continuity mistake: The name tag on Podcast's uniform is always hand-written. When he puts on the scarf to start the final battle, it still is hand-written. When he shows up to smash the cables box, it's now a black and red sewn name, just like the rest of the Ghostbusters' uniforms. According to Ghostbusters Fandom there's a deleted scene where Ray gives Podcast an official name patch.

Continuity mistake: When Manhattan starts to freeze, the car speeds through the streets with Callie and Phoebe in the copilot's seat. In the close-ups, one can see that the place is empty. In some shots, there's a shadow of a bulky object, maybe a dummy of some sort, but it's definitely not the two actors.

Deliberate mistake: When Phoebe is about to destroy the lion statue, police cars arrive at the scene. Barely a second and a half later, suddenly the place is filled with cops who have managed to park the cars, step out, take positions, and aim. It speeds up the action of the film, but it's very awkward.

Continuity mistake: When Stantz finds the trash bag on the lion statue, the tip of the bag and the knot hang way over the edge of the base. An instant cut later, they are several centimetres behind.
