Poor quality sdcard slot on LePotato?

I noticed that a very slight touch to an inserted sdcard will cause a “storage device inserted” messages and this in dmesg log:

[ 166.573013@1] card out
[ 166.573102@0] sd: card aaaa removed

Does anyone else have this issue?

On what box?

On many cheap Chinese boxes SD card slot becomes unstable. A fast fix is to cut some insulating tape and tape it on uSD card for tighter fit and better contact.

Isn’t this a LePotato section of the forum? At least that’s what this terrible discourse interface tells me.

Sorry, my bad.
