    Yeah, before Starlink I was paying $150/month for 15 Mbps down, usually getting half of that or less, and it was transmitted via radio so it always stopped working when it rained. It was barely usable, but too important to stop paying for.

    Now I pay a little less and get 100-150 Mbps down, and the rain usually doesn’t affect it. Latency is better too.

    And I’m just 20 minutes from a fairly large city in the US. There are a lot of areas with less service than I had.

    Musk can eat shit, and I hate giving him money, but Starlink has made a really big difference.
