Fiber beats everything else in terms of low latency, symmetrical speeds (download and upload being equal), and general bandwidth.

The only reason to ever go with 5G/cellular is mobility. Not a big advantage for the home.

Fiber does not suffer from degraded speed/quality as local peak usage increases in the same way that cable and cell networks do.

Pro Tip: Get a free Gmail address. Use that as your emergency email address. Google's spam filtering is pretty effective once you learn to use their tools and feed them spam messages to train the system.

Always have a backup email in case your ISP-tied email has problems.
