Something Sucked My Metered WIFI Dry
I have a metered WIFI plan here in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. I had 17 gigs left a couple of days ago and I have only 4 today. I was expecting to see about 10. I have not done anything differently, so I am not sure why this happened.
I get 55 gigs a month which will renew in a week, so I will be in and out of the internet and severely restricted until Friday night.
If I had money, I can buy more time as an add in. But I have no money and so will not be taking that step.
I already turn my wifi on and off many times a day. This is what I will do in hopes of lasting until Friday at midnight:
Create post text while offline.
Find and sort photos for posts while offline.
Go online and use busy to upload photos.
Copy those to esteem while still online.
Go offline and write text in esteem which works offline for text.
Go online, get the post out of esteem and post it on the correct dApp.
Figure out what to post next for my three blogs.
Open bounty posts which can be typed in offline.
Check steemreply to see what replies and mentions I have.
Open discord once a day and shut it down after checking.
Open canva and make any poster I need.
Repeat, repeat, repeat...
This is what I will not do:
- Find posts to curate for my many programs I do that for.
- Anything to do with my wallets until Tuesday. Then I will claim rewards and see where I am at.
- Check for posts I want to read and comment on. STEEM news blackout!
- Freewrite encouraging on Monday may not happen. If there are only a few people freewriting like the last couple of weeks, I will do it.
Four gigs is a lot. Feel the abundance and go forth.
I took the photo of the running man in the Don Mueang International Airport in Bangkok. Follow him if you need to run. The flowers were in a bucket at the Farmer’s Market in Coronado California. Both were taken with my Canon ELPH160 point and shoot camera.
Beautiful flowers

Do you use Brave browsers on your phone?

I do not use a phone at all, @smallearth. But I have brave on my laptop with media turned off.
I can feel your pain. I totally understand how you feel when you expect to have certain amount of GB left but it fell short. I have for a long while now been making my posts offline. The rate at which data works here in Nigeria is a total rip off. The WiFi I got is too expensive to maintain too. I come online only when I have to. It would have been bearable if the price of steem shoots up.
Everything will be fine. Just find a way around it, for now.
TY @olawalium - I'll make it :)
Sure, you will. I like that energy.
Sounds like you need to change the WiFi password!
I will! Thank you for that advice, @cmplxty :)
