But what problems do you face while using this platform?

How do you guys get help with assignments when you're broke?

4 Upvotes

I'm getting behind on my assignments and honestly not sure what to do anymore.

Some classes are manageable but others take me forever just to understand what I'm supposed to write. And with work taking up most of my free time, its getting pretty difficult to keep up.

I looked into getting some help online but even basic tutoring can be expensive. Not sure if the cheaper options are worth it either.

I mostly need someone who can explain the parts I dont understand and maybe look over what I've already done. I dont have much money to spend on this, so I'd rather not pay for something that doesn't actually help.

How do you guys deal with this? Is there anywhere to get decent help without paying a ton?

My semester setup: one stack per class on the new tab, so everything for a subject lives in one place

each class gets its own stack w/ the lecture slides, problem sets, past papers and whatever youtube video finally made it click. the Focus one is just pomodoro + lofi lol

end of the day I save all my open tabs into that class and close them. next day one click and they all come back as a tab group, so no more 30 tabs sitting open for 3 days

dark one is catppuccin mocha w/ a night wallpaper, second pic is the light version. it's a free chrome extension I made, link in the comments if anyone wants it

how do you all keep stuff together per subject, folders, notion, or just tabs everywhere

I want to focus my attention.

1 Upvotes

I can only focus in two specific environments: 1) a library with a few other people around, and 2) when I’m in a one-on-one video or voice call.

Unfortunately, I can’t access any libraries nearby, so I need help with the second option. Thank you.

Looking for a study buddy — studying feels a little lonely sometimes

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a study buddy to keep each other company while studying. I don't really mind what you're studying, as long as you're also trying to learn something or work toward a personal goal.

We could hop on Google Meet and study together quietly. There's absolutely no need to turn on our microphones or make conversation if we don't feel like it. We can simply do our own thing while having someone else there studying alongside us.

Every now and then, we could send each other a little message to ask how studying is going, share our progress, or just give each other some encouragement on days when motivation is low.

I guess I'm just looking for a little companionship in the process of learning and growing. Sometimes studying on your own can feel a bit lonely, and it would be nice to know that someone else is out there trying their best, too.

No pressure to be productive every single day, no need to be perfect. Just two people quietly supporting each other and trying to become a little better, one day at a time. 🌱

If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, feel free to send me a message!
