As someone who has struggled with various forms of WiFi for a good three decades, WiFi can just fuck all the way off to the ninth circle of hell.

Even the rolling gut on my house has Cat7 planned beside every knee-level power plug in every room, with at least one fiber drop in every room as a high-bandwidth option. And my security will be 100% PoE on an airgapped network.

Hardlining really is the only way to network.

I get 50 GB mobile data for 7 € every month. I wouldn’t even need WiFi for most cases. Only to save phone battery and download heavy stuff

or a landliner 😉

Wi-Fi doesn't mean Internet at all.

It's just a wireless connection to other devices, one of which almost always (in colloquial use anyway) is a modem that has Internet access.

But it is not, in and of itself, a connection to the Internet.

Not-wired connections are always and without exception a workaround for devises where it is impossible or impractical to use a wired connection with.

"How come you haven't upgraded your home network to wi-fi6?"

Because my ethernet is four times as fast for all the shit I need. (Although, realistically it maxes out at 8gbit)

Wi-Fi is bad for me because the alternative is mobile data.

I live in Australia where the broadband speeds are 12.5 to 100Mbps.

I too, enjoy plugging a USB-C to A adapter into my Android phone so I can use an ethernet to USB adapter. :P

More seriously, two of the hard requirements of my house was fiber connection available from the ISP to the house and wired ethernet to the major rooms.

I call it WLAN, since WiFi is a brand name.

We are not the same.

Ethernet is good Internet to you because the alternative is WiFi.

Ethernet is bad Internet to me because the alternative is DWDM 800G per wavelength

We're all the same.

Ethernet means good internet to you because the alternative is wifi.

Ethernet means bad Internet to me because the alternative is fiber.

We are not the same.

How are you supposed to surf the internet without an Ethernet cable to surf on? 🏄 or worse, no Dial-up jam to dance to

Talk to me when you get a station wagon plebs

You can get mobile wifi, which can be good internet.
