This thread started for Mini-PCs and their demand/popularity in India and quickly transitioned into hatred for the current Government's policies.
Yes, the current Government has baffling policies, especially about micro-imports.
They are OK with dealers importing containers of Chinese products. But buying single or a few tech products isn't possible from sellers or platforms like AliExpress.
Tech enthusiasts and hardware tinkerers who used to experiment with sensors, gadgets, servos, motors, and other items, now cannot. This is so painful and depressing.
Meanwhile, middle-men are importing tons of substandard products that could be manufactured in India, slapping their brand and selling them at exorbitant prices.
The Government seems hellbent on killing the passion of young people who could buy a few tech products at cheap prices from China. It is important to note that these products are NOT manufactured at scale (or manufactured at all) in India. This forced many to seek Chinese platforms.
