I lived for years limited to similar speeds, you are hilariously wrong.
That’s 240p YouTube, most of the time. Sometimes it won’t load 240. Most downloads through a browser will fail outright. You can download something, have that download saturate your entire internet and knock you offline. Anything autoplaying is aids. If someone messages you a link with a thumbnail you’ve just been DoSd, not DDoS because it only takes one person to kick you offline.


That was my only data, not limited because I ran out. I’m saying how trash the speed is and how little it can do.
Thumbnails. They can’t always be turned off and depending on what it is it can break everything for a good 30 seconds. Both steam and discord can do this.
The internet in the modern world is just not made to support internet that slow. The reason I even used Reddit and use Lemmy now is other sites took ages to load in the first place, simpler works. Shit I still use bing out of habit because for a very long time it used less bandwidth to load than google, and it was good enough.
edit: for things that actually matter i guess, work app had significant issues and the training videos i bypassed because the 480p wouldnt load.
