lmao I know, I'm a web developer by profession. 😆

Faster download it's always faster download and never understand any circumstances upload.

But what the fuck does this sentence mean?

"Understand" should be "under". It's shitty autocorrect. Probably written on an iPhone. I fucking hate autocorrect on the default iPhone keyboard.

I guess this part should substitute understand for just "under"?

Man, some real sloppy proof reading. 😆
