350gb so far. Shooting for 500+. I’m only 6 days into my new bill. Never let your dreams be dreams.

    Looking at this I just realized the Amazon app uses a lot of data for the few times I use it

    And also i never use spotify wtf, 20gb for an app Ive never opened is insane, deleted it

      Well sure I can. But I’m not going to. I don’t have the time to spend on websites searching and burning or transferring and ratios and everything else.

      I’m perfectly fine with paying for it because my time is valuable to me.

        one provides profits to the porky, the other does not 😠

        tbh i was making a joke that you can store your music locally, why waste data on it, i think you can do it with apple music

          My data is flat rate. I’m not really wasting it if it suresh end i guess. Even at my old house out in the boonies where cows outnumber humans I had 5g UW service. My employer foots the bill currently so I use it.

          As far as your first sentence goes - eh. purity testing is lame.

      No torrenting. Stream a lot of music and video podcasts. My work truck is fancy enough to have CarPlay, so it gets used when I’m there. My personal vehicle has CarPlay as well.

      Always streaming something just about, whether I’m paying attention or it’s just background noise.

      Im supposed to use an app to track my service calls, etc but I refuse to use the app, and instead use the web browser version of it a lot. Lots of photo uploads of work done, repairs, plans etc. the app has too many permissions I’m not ok with, and work pays for my cellphone so as long as I use the web version, which doesn’t track, can’t send push notices etc, they pay for it.

      It isn’t ideal, but it’s 150+ a month I don’t have to pay right now so I’m ok with it til something better comes along. Only leaves me paying for my kids phones monthly.
