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

Actually, Jesus requests 1 Like and 1 Subscribe to equal 1 Prayer.

I have mint unlimited as well and can stream YouTube just fine at full resolution. I didn’t even know there was a supposed resolution limitation.

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.)

Mint is a scam propped up by ryan reynolds, nothing more.
