Honestly don't understand why people didn't see this one coming.

Congestion seemed like an obvious outcome from the point they announced the idea of internet via satellite ?

Honestly don't understand why people don't understand that the Starlink slogan was "better than nothing".

Starlink is still magnitudes better than my previous as-expensive point-to-point wifi, which was capped at 10 Mbps at best and was nearly unusable 7-9pm every night.

If you can get something better than Starlink, then you should.
