Oh we have broadband or fibernet here too. The 4G mobile broadband is only used at the cabin, and phones when on the move. All these services work well but are expensive. I don't mind paying a fair price, after all, if nobody earns any money on it, they'd all go broke. Then we'd all be lost. But I try to see films at the cinema. Without box-office income, they won't be able to finace better films. I wish they'd make a film/series from Weber's books, sigh. Same applies to real-life shops. If everyone only buys from internet stores, the city centres will all die, no customers. That would be sad.

Gifting at the right time is important lol. I always send early in the day CEST so the other Europeans get to send TY gifts early. When the N Americans wake up and send gifts in a mass, then I've had a chance to empty the box before it fills up with the magic 499. If that happens, you can lose valuable collection items. If I'm going to be out all day/evening, I gift sparingly.

One or two or my high level friends regularly send over 100 passes in one go, but the downside of overly generous gifting is blocking up peoples gift boxes so they don't receive the more appreciated CIs. So I try to find a balance, not too many, not too mean.
