    What a world it would be if everyone had minimum 50mbps internet. “Good” rural internet is 1mbps for a lot of peeps, and a whole lot more people have a whole lot lower speeds.

    shitty would be less than 10mbps, perhaps you are from places where the internet isn’t comically expensive.

      10mbps is not even an option anymore tho for most isps.
      50 is the lowest that’s still exists, with most isps offering 100 or 300 as the cheapest option
