Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that doesn’t justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Does anyone use Hot Shot as their ISP?

I’m moving house and eyeing up a new fibre provider. They look very reasonably priced and a quick search of reddit and geekzone suggests their uptime is good. However im more concerned about whether I will get pinged for “reasonable use” under their unlimited plans given that I use between 200-400GB a month and sometimes more.

Despite slingshot being extremely expensive they at least haven’t said anything when I’ve hit 700GB in a month. It’d also be a dealbreaker if Hot Shot does port blocking with no way to control it and selectively open ports.

@terraborra
I use hot shot cause they're cheap. I think we average over 500gb. Haven't had any trouble so far.

Legend. Thank you that’s exactly what I was after.
