Speaking of DIY's, just about every old school DIY with photos attached or embedded is gone. I think there is an issue overall with the hosting of images that just disappear, making the threads useless. Seems to have affected all of the internet, not just this forum.

Here's an example:

I updated the thread to say closed, not sure how to *actually* close it, or if that's a thing

Yes I believe again it was both you and Propellerhead that expressed dissatisfaction with me editing links to videos that no longer worked. Previously the videos would embed here on the forum (as they do on every other forum) but after so many years embedding feature was removed, and what remained were broken links. So I fixed them.

It's too bad embedding is no longer working here, it was helpful to watch repair videos embedded as part of a discussion (call it an evolution of the old school embedded photo style DIY). So now it's just links and discussion, but the discussion is equally valuable, especially when diagnosing.
