Like they said, for a small elite. If you don't see yourself as such, adjust your view.

what is your ping to fly.io right now?

90ms for me. My fiber connection is excellent and there is no jitter--fly.io's nearest POP is just far away. You mentioned game streaming so I'll mention that GeForce Now's nearest data center is 30ms away (which is actually fine). Who is getting 6ms RTT to a data center from their house, even in the USA?

More relevantly... who wants to architect a web app to have tight latency requirements like this, when you could simply not do that? GeForce Now does it because there's no other way. As a web developer you have options.

Mine's 167-481ms (high jitter). It's the best internet I can get right now, a few suburbs south of San Francisco. Comcast was okayish, lower mean latency, but it had enough other problems that T-Mobile home internet was a small improvement.
