I’ve had no ISP-provided Internet access since Feb. 2023 or so and, while it’s been a pain at times, I still haven’t caved into returning to the evil monopoly that is Spectrum, so far, and probably won’t for as long as I can’t land a remote job. ArrowDL, while not perfect, has been pretty good at download management for the most part in conjunction with mobile data-hotspotting.

    That’s awesome! Especially that it has got you to visit libraries more.

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I prefer my current ISP because for some reason they haven’t changed my IP in almost a year which makes my selfhosting run more smoothly for my public sites. I also need internet for gaming, being able to VPN into my network, and for P2P.

    I could live with using my phone for gaming but idk what I would do for my websites, VPN access, and P2P traffic.

      Oh, yeah, running multiple public sites could definitely present a challenge. This may not be doable, then…
