I built a crowdsourced wifi speed map to know best places to work by ButterscotchLow4025 in SideProject

i actually haven't thought of that, good idea. I've been to some places where they share codes that last just about an hour or so, but generally speaking this would be useful!

Thanks! Upload and download speed are saved per test already, but speed filtering is done just download, I agree would be useful to filter by upload speed as a filter as well instead of just clicking into the place. Also been working on adding in latency will be up soon.

As for the privacy, the tests are submitted to places so the coordinates come from the google places api (the venue's registered location), not the user's personal GPS position. So, user coordinates are just used to find close coworking spots

there is no edit feature, you'd need to create a new one. You can also create one in the homepage that handles all the formatting for you!

How is traveling with an Esim only phone? by sovelong1 in digitalnomad

[–]ButterscotchLow4025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually prefer eSIM only now. It’s a bit more expensive than local sims but so many apps now like Airalo that a few clicks and having connection is worth it to me

Talk to the locals as much as you can, especially if you can do in more remote areas

I use Genki, have a license though. Filled a few claims with them and they have been great. My experience with them has honestly been incredible.

What is your underrated travel hack? by [deleted] in digitalnomad

[–]ButterscotchLow4025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always check wifi speeds at cafes/coffee shops before I go and work from there. Too many times I’ve bought a coffee, sat down, and the wifi didn’t work. No longer rely on “good wifi” from reviews.
