Today I found out my #SmartHome thermostat hasn't been working because of an ISP outage in the area. While I am all for #NetNeutrality, this one takes the cake for me; how can people be expected to have functioning smart houses if they keep prioritising internet leeches (such as "self-hosters") over actual customers, overloading their networks?
I'm on the phone with my provider right now, the waiting times might take a while, but this is something that's gotta be said.
@jo ISP skill issue. you can totally have self hosters and not effing kill your network, it's called QOS and maybe some level of redundancy, instead of oversubscribing a line to hell and then going surprised_pikachu.jpg when normal average users watching some netflix already overload the entire thing. This one shouldn't be blamed on self hosters, they can not fix this for you.
