In my experience it's more user hostile the worse your connection, because they have to sit and watch the images load for an even longer amount of time than I do, whereas it could have kept loading for them ahead of time.
Where without lazy loading they could normally get up and get a cup of coffee and come back, you are now actively wasting their time as they scroll.
