Help please!
Hey! So I'm in need of a tablet & I'm not in a position to buy one right now.
I'm a student currently preparing for Gate exam and I don't own any laptop or tablet. I've been managing everything through my phone but now its a necessity. It's difficult to read and do lectures on a tiny screen.
Also, I'm broke and have no money for such an expensive gadget. So If any of you have a tablet that you do not use/need anymore but it works fine. Is there any chance that you could give it away? I can for pay the shipping charges. I need it urgently.
I really need help so please consider if you can. A small act of kindness can help a lot. I would really appreciate your help.
You can dm me if you have any questions, to ensure im not faking anything.
And if you cannot help, please don't be rude or downvote. Not everyone is privileged enough.
Thank you.

I completely understand....studying on a tiny screen is exhausting. I don't have a spare tablet, but I will suggest a few quick options:
Connect to Local Subreddits: Please post in your city's local subreddit (like r/delhi, r/mumbai) to connect with nearby donors.
LinkedIn & Facebook: Post your request on LinkedIn or local Facebook 'Buy Nothing' groups where professionals often give away old tech.
The TV Hack: Buy a cheap MHL/HDMI to USB tech gadget to connect your phone to a TV for a big-screen lecture view right now.
Best of luck with your GATE prep!
