I just wanted to share this story to show there are still some genuinely great people on the internet.

I posted a week ago about how my 4K TV broke and how going back to 1080p half the size was such a drastic difference, and if anyone felt the same.

For context, I am a 26 year old full time carer for a family member, out of work for 2 years due to caring and I am fully broke. I saved up for 3 years for a PS5, just for my TV to pack in less than a month after purchasing it. I can’t even afford to buy games for it apart from a base PS Plus subscription, so a new TV was out of the question for a few years.

Was bad luck, but what can you do right?

[u/ carguy143] comments saying he has a spare 4K TV if I’m nearby the northwest of England. Although I was hugely appreciative, I am in Scotland and can’t leave the house much.

So the legend offered to drive the TV up if I could cover petrol costs as he’s a car enthusiast! 200 miles each way and a 7 hour journey minimum. He drove up and dropped off the TV today, lovely person and genuinely selfless. Can’t express my genuine thanks to him enough!

Just wanted to post this to say there’s some genuinely great people in the community.

I’m endlessly grateful and hope to pay it forward one day when I have the means to!
