Hardware Very loose kickstand

[CatmanFan]

So I've owned a Switch since about a week after launch, now my kickstand is starting to open on its own if I hold the Switch in a downwards angle. I tried putting pressure on the curved side (as I tried to follow a video on it) to try and fix it, no luck. I can't even leave the kickstand closed off without using some glue to seal it in place (although that might probably be a bad idea and is probably the equivalent of using a band-aid). Does anyone know how to make the kickstand more stable or do I need a replacement? Or should I just stick to my current solution?

tbh the switch kickstand is kinda trash. you could find something else to balance your switch on or you could try and get a replacement. Either way they're pretty flimsy and'll probably break again anyway

If you have one the Wii U Gamepad stand works really well for the Switch.
