Have been using starlink for more than 2 years at this point and can confirm from my view that there are very few connection issues. I’ve almost never looked at my connection as the issue when gaming since getting it. It either went down completely for a few hours (2 times I can remember) or was very solid.
EDIT: Not excusing or fanboying for Musk, as his personal direction has been questionable in recent years. But talking about the technology perspective.
A coworker lives out I the middle of nowhere but has Starlink to keep him connected and working fully remote. Literally once a meeting he drops mid-sentence and when his frozen face comes back to life he's yelling "GOD DAMNIT ELON". Never fails to get a chuckle.
My boss had starlink and we used to joke that it was an elaborate plot to get out of meetings/awkward conversations.
