I am 38 years old, I remember perfectly when downloading a single song could easily take a week, porn was exclusively photos because online videos were unimaginable and streaming hadn't even been invented yet. I don't understand why you're still worried about that right now, photos, videos, games, movies, everything moves online in a matter of seconds, downloading at +10Mb/s on emule is today normal. I have gotten used to it normally.

Anytime someone is generalizing a group like a generation...

It's usually understood that exceptions exist.

Ok, I might be the exception, but as I said before, Instagram has its main user base among people of my generation. I don't think those users care about bandwidth at any level.
