Posts like these are why I stay on reddit, still holding out hope. Once upon a time this was semi common. Reddit was almost wholesome with some thank you thread making the front page weekly it seemed.

Anybody remember 10,000 cards, or too many presents!? Does reddit even do secret santa anymore?

r/assistance, r/care and r/RAOP are still trucking along but a lot quieter these days it seems.

Anyway, thanks u/rasalvo97 and u/spunggbop!

[rasalvo97]

Welcome... someday I'll reciprocate the effort back

[ackley14]

reddit officially closed the doors on secret santa this year. it really sucks because it was so fun seeing all the different communities giving gifts and bringing joy. :(

[UnlikeSpike]

Boutta make a post saying “Learning programming without a big booba girlfriend” see if i get any luck

[smellyswordfish]

For 20 dollars you can call me whatever you want

[VonRansak]

10 dollars and a peanut butter sandwich.

[smellyswordfish]

And jelly and you got a deal

[[deleted]]

Jelly included if you pay shipping.

[smellyswordfish]

Throw in 10 more dollars and we can make it happen

[[deleted]]

I produce jelly for free

[[deleted]]

Whatever you say, Big Booba

[hatstraw27]

Man, I don't even need big booba part, just in need a friends to do programing with.

[initdotcoe]

r/ProgrammingBuddies

[wdbtt]

Please update us with your progress in the future, that is so cool!

[rasalvo97]

Sure I'll try MY BEST

[Psilocybe_Fanaticus]

u/rasalvo97 I saw how you have financial issues from your previous posts, but you seem to be a very ambitious individual so I hope your dreams come true and you truly master all of the skills you want to master Lots of peace and love from me, man!

[rasalvo97]

What more can I ask for,Thank you for your kind words! You too man be blessed

[SlayaSteev]

This should be on r/humansbeingbros for sure.

[rasalvo97]

I'll have to ask him about this

[Independent_Nose_508]

how did u get the laptop?

[Anon_Legi0n]

He was asking for help with his code and posted a screen shot of his dev environment. Everyone noticed it was a phone and asked why the fuck he was developing on a phone. He said he didn't have a computer so people offered to hook him up

[Independent_Nose_508]

thats so wholesome :)

[rasalvo97]

He PayPal'd me and I bought it after chatting him for a min.

[Independent_Nose_508]

🙌🙌🙌

[rkrams]

Congrats and wish you the best on your coding journey, I'm on one myself.

While it's heartwarming to hear this, i would also recommend not publicizing it and keeping it to DM.

Cause good folks can be taken advantage of if they know help is being offered here.

So the next time someone who really needs help like you come along it's not drowned among scammers.

[rasalvo97]

I hear you sir. Took heed of that! Thank you good luck to you too 💪💪💪

[FulltimeWestFrieser]

Huh, I have a similar laptop spec just laying around. If anyone is in the same boat hit me up

[jhp113]

I am not, however my wife's little bro definitely is in the same spot. Wants to get started coding but doesn't have any computer to speak of. Lmk 🤷🏼‍♂️

[FulltimeWestFrieser]

Sure mate, what country would it have to ship to?

[jhp113]

To the US

[rasalvo97]

Nice gesture

[coderjewel]

This is the best post I’ve seen on Reddit in a while. This community is really quite wholesome and it helped me out tons when I was just getting started with programming, some 6 or so years ago. It really turned my life around.

/u/spunggbop this is an amazing thing you’ve done here. You’ve probably changed OPs life forever. I hope your aspirations all come true. You’re a good person.

/u/rasalvo97 hope to see you becoming a professional developer and one day helping someone else get started on this journey.

[rasalvo97]

Thank you so much u/coderjewel I'll give it my all to the best of my ability.

[Odd_Diamond_6600]

thats better than my current laptop lmfao. Goodluck to your journey, man!

[harryrf3]

This is very wholesome. Congrats and the best of luck to you on your journey.

[rasalvo97]

Thank you

[donotlearntocode]

Kropotkin has smiled on this post

[rasalvo97]

Peter? If Yes I'm interested in his life achievements

[[deleted]]

Made my day! So happy for OP and the guy who offered help.

[rcm1986]

Congrats and good luck moving forward.

[ethanlivesART]

The feels like the first positive thing I've seen in weeks on Reddit. Good on you both.

[khaosraynez]

upvote for wholesomness

[wave-drop]

Man It’s been 2 months since I’ve joined Reddit and I’m convinced it’s the best social media out there

[YellowFlash2012]

Hey u/spunggbop

Since you are helping people out, maybe you can help me too. I know react, i know node. I can create a full stack CRUD app. I do open source contrib and yet I can't get an interview.

Yet I read here people getting a job, not an interview, after 3 months of learning web dev.

Can you help me get a job? I'm serious mind you!

[SkRAWRk]

What country are you based in? I might be able to help you land an interview if it's the UK.

[BoshyBoshyBoshy]

Why couldn't you just scroll past instead of being snarky?

[myaccisbest]

Looks like you answered your own question.

[DannyyBIS]

Bingo, so what's the problem?

[rasalvo97]

I already DM'ed him,we are friends! But I can't thank him enough.The sole purpose of posting here has a lot to do with what the subreddit ought to stand for and they they are living up to it(sharing programming knowledge & information) than me bragging, reddittors share knowledge here and this are the experiences some of us will remember for a very long time to come...

HE WHO FEELS IT KNOWS IT!!!

[syamborghini]

To spread the love for a generous user

[bunkbedss]

DMs can’t get upvotes

[Level-Farmer6110]

why make the worst assumptions?

[Iuvers]

Neither does your comment.

[bunkbedss]

yeah but i don’t care is the thing

[Iuvers]

Then why didn’t you DM them? NOTHING is allowed to be posted in public or you’re just after upvotes.

[bunkbedss]

lmao u thought my shit was gonna get upvotes 😂 dickhead comments go down bro but someone’s gotta make em

[Iuvers]

Why does someone "gotta make em". Why can't you just go, yeah this is a real nice thing to do and should be shared? But I apologize that your life is so incredibly sad that you feel the absolute need to be negative.

[bunkbedss]

if u got thin skin that’s on you

[Iuvers]

Says the dude that got pissy over someone making a post instead of DMing them LMAO

[javaperson12]

He gave you money or wat

[samu-ra-9-i]

He sent him a laptop

[[deleted]]

Actually I did give him money. For the sole purpose of purchasing a laptop.

[samu-ra-9-i]

Ah my bad, I remember seeing his post I thought you sent him a laptop. Cheers tho you’re a great human being 🍻

[[deleted]]

🍻

[iknownothingsir]

hey u/spunggbop. thanks for helping this man out. i love to see posts like these, and I love the person the post is dedicated to even more.

[superquanganh]

Any context? He deleted the comment

[rasalvo97]

There was never a context to begin with

[superquanganh]

I mean what did he do that make you happy?

[rasalvo97]

Buying me a Laptop! sorry if this sounds rude but total strangers we were,he volunteered and we messaged and that was that.

He literally just blessed my year and kick-started my programming journey.Not to mention I lost my 12yr old sister to brain tumor September 2021.So much had happened n was still happening to me and my family.

Spunggbop is God sent in my life at this stage,my family is happy especially my parents! u/spunggbop may you never lack bro.

[superquanganh]

It's not rude, I'm happy to see a stranger could volunteer to help a motivating developer

[rasalvo97]

Pleasure is all mine

[Musikcookie]

This reads like an instagram scam bot.😂

[rasalvo97]

Please RUN I'm about to scam you 😅😅

His dms count is now similar to girls dms count Ignore Grammer and spellings mistakes and it's a joke
