I live in a weird and slightly rural area. I’m nestled between two mountains and it’s not very populated but not terribly far from a medium sized city. Internet service has always been a challenge here. Had frontier DSL for ages and it was a nightmare. Crap speed (maybe 2 mgb on a good day), frequent outages, and terrible customer service. When Ziply took them over, they had a lot to clean up and it took years for them to sort it out (the pandemic was far more complicated than it already was) but, over time, there were less outages though not much better speed. As of this year, the max I would get in a speed test was 4 mgbs.

Well, my luck has changed! Fiber has finally been installed to my home. They say it’s a gig but my speed test puts WiFi at about 760. I cannot complain!!! Wowzers! My mind is blown with the potential in front of me now. Automated home, remote job opportunities, the ability to finally be able to upload and download loads without my devices just giving up, and so much more. Shit, I might even take up gaming again.

Just came here to say hi and welcome myself so this decade in this century. Life is going to be so much better.
