Good thing starlink service was made available in Germany earlier this year.

All the sources I can find (like [0]) say "Starlink is currently available in some major cities especially in Western Germany, and promises to bring the network up mid-to-end-of-2021, but many, especially rural areas, are not in reach yet".

So IMO not applicable.

Starlink is still in its infancy and needs 10 times as many satellites up there before it can really provide a global coverage.

I believe they will make it by 2024 or perhaps a bit sooner (if Starship development goes well - that ship has an enormous cargo capacity to LEO), but it isn't an option for most people yet.
