  • This could have been something that reddit pitched successfully to the site at the time - they could have acknowledged that folks don’t like ads and made a point of framing advertisers as entities choosing to support reddit and keep it free & functional - Reddit likes supporting “it’s own”. They could have facilitated and supported connections between advertisers and targeted communities in ways that bypass Reddit’s hostility towards ads and appeals to advertisers. Instead they just started serving ads.

    And they didn’t just start serving ads, they started serving ads like the HeGetsUs campaign that were so poorly targeted that the community they’d built absolutely hated them.





  • Make sure both ends of the cable are seated firmly.

    Open the sensor up and check for any debris that may interfere with the microswitch.

    If both of those are ok, you’ll want to check continuity of the cable with a multimeter, to make sure the cable hasn’t broken internally somewhere. Once that’s confirmed good, tape the switch closed and test continuity through the switch. Typically those sensors are made with really cheap microswitches, so you may need to just swap it out with a more reliable switch.

    Good news is they’re extremely simple, and so pretty easy to test.
