    Man I really hope so. I’m in a 25/3 wasteland. My dad, a town over, is even lower. About 7/0.8.

      Meanwhile in the Netherlands, I can choose between several gigabit providers. Symmetrical on fiber or asymmetrical on cable. I’ve been on gigabit fibre for a couple of years.

        I live in podunk nowhere, but if the amount of time since I’ve had that speed could buy things, I think it’d be old enough to buy cigarettes.

        Also I’m surprised CenturyLink is even still alive.

          They rebranded as Lumen, so they could provide the same shitty service to people who were already wary of them.

            And rebranded their fiber AGAIN as Quantum… (And somehow got q.com… So jealous…) Presumably because even as “Lumen” they’ve screwed their brand…
