Hi! So I have quite a simple sketch on a Wemos d1 mini that just shows my current followers on a social platform. I have built a wooden box to house a dot matrix panel and the Wemos. It is supposed to be powered on and off all the time but when I turn the power on it doesn't run the sketch. I have to push the reset button for it to restart. When I try it connected to the computer it seems like the sketch is actually running after I pull the usb out and push it back in, but there's nothing showing on the Matrix unless I press the reset key. It's mildly annoying since it's supposed to sit in the wooden box and I would have to unscrew four screws to reach the reset button.

I have to code here and can post it if it is needed, but I am not sure that it is causing the problem. I have tried two different Wemos d1 mini so it doesn't seem to be that causing it either.

Appreciate any help I can get.
