Espresso House (in Sweden) tends to have public access wifi, but it is extremely slow compared to 4G.

What I find more surprising is that Sweden dropped “unlimited” data plans, I’m not aware of any data plan that is unlimited now. So if you want to do some video calls then I would be looking for wifi.

30GB/month will get you very far also for video calls IMO.

But yes that is exactly the thing. Except for the security risks it is just not worth the hassle to go through a captive portal sign-on just to find out that the WiFi is so much worse than using your phone.

What do you mean? There's unlimited data plans, e.g. telenor, tele2, tre, chilimobil, etc.
oooo this is new.

2017 there were none, I checked. Seems like they're back!

They've been around for a very long time as far as I know.
Yet I couldn't find one and I was specifically looking for one. :)

And I've been living in Sweden since 2014, and it was commented on that "they're dissapearing" a few times in the games studio I was working in.

Glad they've been around, but the way you say this seems to indicate that I was lying and there's genuinely no reason for me to do that.

No, I was just saying
