50MB/s is like 0.4Gbit/s. Idk where you are, but in Switzerland you can get a symmetric 10Gbit/s fiber link for like 40 bucks a month as a residential customer. Considering 100Gbit/s and even 400Gbit/s links are already widely deployed in datacenter environments, 300MB/s (or 2.4Gbit/s) could easily be handled even by a single machine (especially since the workload basically consists of serving static files).
Yeah, I know, I am in the process of leaving where I am now (eu citizen) and its between uk, germany and the netherlands. The reason I didnt look seriously at swiss, is because of all the stories I heard about people never integrating, despite efforts.
I’m looking for my forever place, that means balls deep in every aspect.
I live in NL myself, even though we have complaints (high taxes, delayed trains) I don’t think they’re nearly as serious as I hear from other countries (like US trans people getting declined public services, people living in fear of being deported or killed)
Although we don’t really have affordable housing, I would say that’s a fairly big issue.
The PPP in Germany tends to be a bit better (slightly lower wages, but even lower grocery prices and rent prices), and overall it seems people follow rules and order a good deal better.
Overall, both are good countries to live in IMO.
I can’t speak for the UK, though.
Why did you have to say you want to be balls deep in the UK, Netherlands or Germany though…?

So I have to move to Swiss then, got it.
That, and safe streets, kind people, clean air, clean water, gorgeous mountains, war safety, high PPP, I could go on…

I can recommend Germany and Netherlands!

I think anywhere outside the US or Australia will do.
