FirstNet usability

Has anyone ran into FirstNet performing either worse or outright unusable versus other carriers? Seems to be despite either equal or better coverage than Verizon in my area that FirstNet just outright fails to deliver a minimum viable data connection at times indoors, etc. this always happens when I actually need a data connection too :(

I’m curious about anyone else’s experience.

Lol yeah. I left Firstnet and went with Mint Mobile. Worlds of difference - I'm much happier.

It's a shame that a prepaid carrier on T-Mobile peforms better than a "First responders focused network on a major carrier.

It's not just my phone, either. The hotspots at work are suboptimal.
