FWIW, Comcast upload speeds are in the midst of being upgraded. If you pay for their rental gateway, you could get upwards of 200 Mbps depending on your connection tier. "Eventually" this will come to user-owned modems.
As much as I dislike Comcast, I personally wouldn't go from a wired copper line to a 5G connection if I was concerned about connection speeds and reliability. Business practices aside, Xfinity has been reliable for me.
edit: I love that I got downvoted for saying this. TMobile is just another huge corporation -- one that brings in 100 billion dollars a year and doesn't give a shit about you. No better and no worse than Comcast. I am grateful that 5G ISPs have come to the city to introduce some competition, but they are not an option for me because of my connection needs. Do whatever is right for your situation, but don't pretend like you're switching to a not-for-profit municipal ISP.

I think the plan is for the city to just own the fiber infrastructure and lease it to ISPs.

I recently honked at someone when I saw them dump trash at a red light around MLK and N Howard. They got out of their car and threatened to kill me. Love this city!

Never seen a crime that required this specific kind of response. They were ONLY black unmarked vehicles.

They will almost certainly end up in a landfill regardless of what that says. Plastic should be re-used as much as possible. I use pill bottles for screws and other small bits and bobs.

True! Misread it as "get there [around] 6-6:30"

I feel your pain. I used to host a server on a gigabit fiber connection, but had to move it to my house. The upload speed is painful, but I am holding out for the upgrade.
