If you live in Switzerland you can get a 25Gbit fiber link to your home. That's 25Gbit *symmetrical* - upload *and* download. On a dedicated connection that's yours and yours alone. From multiple providers. It's the *ne plus ultra*, *magnifico*, *wunderschön*:

@pluralistic Maybe it’s a different Ting mobile, but the one I have used for years does have decent rates but has been sold for Boost (which is what my phone now reports) and is quite backwards in that they do not support eSIMs (at least as of the last I asked at the end of last year) which means I’ll have to switch carriers if I want to use a newer phone than my current iPhone 13 Pro.
