is there an ad campaign for the beastars personality tests??? what is the sub being flooded with them? every time i scroll on my home page i see these results lmao

edit 2: i'll be taking the violin to a luthier soon. i dont want to know that there's deeper structural issues going on that may not be obvious to me. thanks for the help i've received for letting me understand this.

Im returning to violin after a long break (and read the FAQ about getting a teacher. i'll get one after i finish university). I was retuning it and while tuning the G string i heard a snap. the fine tuner no longer works but the string itself is fine. due to not being able to get a teacher easily because of schedule and availability, i can't get it fixed immediately.

is that a cause for concern or is the fine tuner being out of commission for that string fine? should i loosen all fine tuners and retune the violin just in case more of them go (it'd be really bad if i no longer have an E fine tuner). the violin is in tune otherwise (as much as it can possibly be. i didn't want to go overboard and snap any strings and 100% not get to practice.)

*edit: i looked at the fine tuner for that string and it's like the screw is beside the black lever thing (im so sorry for these innacurate terms). i tried loosening it and moving the black lever thing up slightly but that's not working, and i genuinely dont want to mess around with it and have no violin to do even bare bones practice. the others look fine and sound ok.

thanks for any help :D
