Starlink - anyone using it?

[Grim5]

Russia's starlink is going poorly with batches of satellites rentering and burning up and so far none have reached their intended 800km orbit

100Mb is only £28 a month, seems very cheap. Paying more for fibre and that hits about 40-50Mb.

The lower tier packages look to come with the mini dish, is that a big issue?

Latency is 'not great' compared to land basied internet.

You say your fibre tops out at 40-50mb, I assume that is fake fibre (FTTC which is copper) and not actual fibre.

Yeah FTTC, been waiting years for FTTP and it's still not been laid in our village. Every surrounding village has it.
