It never ceases to amaze me how fast my <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/Internet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Internet</span></a> is now.

Linux Is Best<p><span>If you're going to perform a speed test, I would suggest using Cloudflare's Speed Test.<br><br>Why?<br><br>The problem with Speed Test dot Net, for example, is they often have a partnership or server in house. So you end up testing, for example, Comcast Xfinity to Comcast Xfinity. While your ISP (internet service provider) likes to claim this is the best way to test your internet, that is not a real-world example, because in the everyday real-world, most of the websites and services you are using are not in house, provided by your ISP.<br><br>Cloudflare's Speed Test is also going to provide you more details on exactly what is going on. That information can be useful and helpful.
