What are the chances of Starlink getting worse as adoption grows and available bandwidth gets saturated?

You're only competing with your neighbors, since different regions connect to different ground stations. If you live in a rural location it's unlikely the user density will ever be high enough to cause a problem.

If you live in a dense metro area it will probably fill up very quickly - but then again Starlink is not really designed for those locations, which probably already have good connectivity.

100%. they're nowhere near the satellite/user ratio they're planning.
