For Europeans, who don't understand: In America they have limits on mobile data in single digits of GB.
As a German over 20 I very much understand
Canada too, our telecom companies are... bad
I got into the habit of downloading anything I wanted to watch / read on the bus. That offline reddit app was nice, and even though I don't need it now I'd probably download a lemmy version of it
I also set up an IFTTT thing back then which would turn off data and turn on wifi based on location
Depending on the contract you sign. Some have unlimited data options, others have only a couple gigs. But back in the early days of mobile data, unlimited options were rare and going beyond your limit meant potentially hundreds more in expenses for the month
I had 400mb a month for years and it was plenty for me (European).
I guess that can work if you're basically just texting. But that's barely enough for 2 youtube videos. I don't think that qualifies as "plenty" for most people.
I have 1GB/m and rarely use half of it. I just don't watch YT when I'm outside. And it's plenty for looking at beans on Lemmy.
Wait you don’t get unlimited data? With a fair usage policy.
Honestly I think most people have unlimited nowadays but other plans definitely exist
