I think this is why Netflix came out with fast.com <http://fast.com/>, but AFAIK, they're the only ones that have 
their own tool using their own infrastructure.

macOS have a built-in “networkQuality” command line tool (`man networkQuality` or https://support.apple.com/kb/HT212313 
). (iOS and iPadOS have a similar tool if a “WiFi Performance Diagnostics” profile has been installed).
