For some it’s long overdue. Fiber is soon to be 20 years old at my house.
But honestly, I don’t think most people need hyper fiber anyway, so that’s probably why we havent seen it.
I would say most people do not need a home connection that is in the same order of magnitude as the average data center server connection in use at the same time. Mostly because by definition there won’t be many servers to transfer data from and to at that speed and the average person doesn’t run too many connections in parallel.
Then again, with federation and people “taking back” the internet, it could be useful… One day that is ofc.
Realistically most people will still not run devices 24/7 at home. Data centers will always have a place for that kind of service, even if they host a lot of small, independently owned devices by the very same people whose home connections we are talking about.
You don’t need to run your pc 24/7, if you share the load with others.
This week I was discussing with a friend trying to check some boxes and see if she really needed the 10Gbps connection they were planning to subscribe to on the new house. The usual 1Gbps connectiom we already have is more than enough. But we considered that in very small cases it might be useful.
