I pray for Mint unlimited and still struggle to load a YouTube video. This 480p limit is a fucking joke! I should just start downloading movies and shit.

    I pray for Mint unlimited

    So how does this work, exactly? 1 Like = 1 Prayer? Or do you get on a kneeler, and that powers the Internet? I mean, i kinda understand the low bandwidth--prayer is completely wireless

    Switch to Visible, I did and never looked back.

    It's $25/month, but you get truly unlimited data and it will only throttle if there is congestion (which I have yet to experience.)
