Living on a farm in the Swedish countryside with 1Gbit/1Gbit fiber I'll probably make you even more jealous...

Hej Yetanfao, can I randomly ask you if you're aware of any tech positions you could refer? I'm seriously considering moving to Sweden (and it's not just the 1Gbit fiber).

Loads of companies are looking for developers of various sorts, take your pick :-)

(100/100 Mbps since 2005 or so in a little village in Sweden)

I have 250/250 but the usb dongle was only 100mbit lol

US is weirdly bipolar when it comes to internet. In some areas, you can barely get a DSL connection from a single ISP, and it will be some astronomical price of like $70+/mo (if you are lucky). If you don't like it, suck it up, because you have no other providers servicing your area. In others, you have like 4-5 ISPs, all offering fiber and at reasonable prices.

It definitely feels like it is getting better, though. Moved to Seattle and am happily paying ~$40/mo for symmetrical non-capped 1Gb fiber (both up and down). Even my family still living in suburban GA (way outside of the perimeter, not some within-the-city suburb) got fiber recently, and at a fairly ok price for the area (tho definitely way more expensive than $40/mo, and they only have a choice between Comcast and AT&T, unfortunately).

If you're in a Fios area, Verizon's running a deal on 940/880 Mbps right now for $74.99.

Cable or DSL only here and I pay about that for 120/16.
