Same reason I have Comcast internet.
You lost me. I was with you right up until that point, but then you went off the deep end.
Comment on YSK that United has significantly escalated their war against basic economy passengers

I used to fly united quite a bit and it used to be pretty good. But these days my options for flying for work are united, delta, and southwest and I usually choose delta because they don’t charge you for shit and you can have both an overhead carry on and a small bag plus free internet on the plane. In the end they’re all shit, but I’m going to pick the lesser of the shits each time. Same reason I have Comcast internet.

As a begrudging Comcast customer myself, allow me to explain. They are the least shitty option because the only alternatives in my area are 5G and Verizon DSL. Verizon DSL has a max download speed less than 1mbps.
So yeah, I use Comcast. And I hate it.

My choices are AT&T and Comcast. Both are shitty and treat you equally shitty, but Comcast actually works most of the time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah I’m choosing Aol or Starlink before Comcast

As a happy Comcast customer, my old ISP still only sells plans up to 100 Mbps and it routes all traffic through a city that’s over 200 miles away.

I use Comcast because I have one choice and it’s Comcast

That’s why almost everyone who uses Comcast uses Comcast.

You use Comcast because you have 0 other choices
I use Comcast because I have 1 choice

WISP does not count as an ISP. Fucking T-Mobile is not a replacement for Internet.

The rest can opt between Comcast and AT&T. FML.

Same for me, and as shitty as Comcast has been in other places, I’ve had only two non-power related outages with them in almost 7 years here. I think their service quality varies not only state by state, but even county to county in some places.
