Made a spreadsheet of mobile plan data so people could compare providers and plans easily. I plan to update it either yearly or every 6 months. This was inspired by this spreadsheet on all the NBN plan pricing information: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_wnaTFb_3QsdgZfKDrEO6D_Rpzt2clbB/edit?gid=1523306688#gid=1523306688

Web readable format and link would be good!

Also why source control a non trackable binary file spreadsheet?

You can try a markdown formatted table!

Works good in github readme, and here in Voyager/lemmy, not sure about codeberg.

ChatGPT would make quick work of creating it from your data, then just copy and paste. Should render in rich text mode like this

markdown table
x y
 |markdown|table|
 |--|---|
 |x|y|

Not hugely Scalable but is easily readable

I put it in a spreadsheet as it is a good way to display the information. If you know of a format which is like a spreadsheet and is web readable, please tell me. (And not "some software can display it on a website", that can be done with most formats, including opendocument spreadsheets which I used here.)

Will work fine on Codeberg, but I can hardly use formulas in that. Those aren't really suitable for somewhat large amounts of data, which is what I have.

CSV to .MD build job on merge to main?

Dunno.

All I know is I'm not downloading a file to open it each time for updates.

Spreadsheet(1)(2)(3)...(99)

It won't be updated that frequently, and I don't see why you would download it every update instead of occasionally when you are considering switching plans / getting a new plan
