Agreed - I used to be a Hughesnet customer before switching to Starlink. It's genuinely incomprehensible how slow satellite internet is for the price; stuff like Starlink is a long-overdue kick in the pants to these satellite providers.

Say what you will about Elon et. al, it's probably true. But Starlink is a killer tool for people that live where Comcast and AT&T refuse to build lines. It's a much better deal (infinite bandwidth versus metered) and a no-brainer for anyone that's still paying for expensive, stodgy satnet.
