    In response to concerns that the new r/homeautomation mod team could overlook posts with dangerous misinformation, the anonymous Redditor pointed me to the subreddit’s sidebar, which has a disclaimer about the dangers of electricity. However, the disclaimer is only visible on old Reddit. The mod doesn’t know why.

    Oh Lord

      Thank God I wasn’t the only one who went WTF. That’s like one of the simplest things I learned as a mod in my first 2 days. You gotta update the sidebar twice for both versions of it. It’s been over a month since they probably took over and they still don’t know this.

      I love this article but it also makes me sad like with the old r/canning mods pointing out the unsafe material the new mods left up.
