Original Summary

📡 Kinda anecdotal but I now have 2 friends with @Starlink (and so 3 if you include me) I loaned my Starlink Mini to @mick__net after his 🇵🇹 Portuguese ISP @NOS was (and still is!) down for 2+ months, while he lives 500 meters away from the NOS headquarters in Lisbon 😂 Nobody can fix it, customer support is useless and even cancelling his plan is difficult Anyway Starlink Mini got him his internet back immediately and saved his ass cause he had to work, and now he ordered his own and gave mine back, which I then used for traveling in Greece, and he's a Starlink convert Now today my other friend @cso_notes also got one in 🇷🇴 Romania! Adoption in Europe always comes a bit later than in US, but I think Starlink is starting to get a significant presence now Many people who I tell about Starlink are still skeptical about satellite internet, they always talk about latency issues, and they think latency is like 1 second but it's more like 10ms (1/100th of a second) which is the same or better than regular fiber internet I've never had so LITTLE issues with internet as since I had Starlink, it's never been down, it always just works and customer support is via chat and works really well I absolutely HATE having to call a phone number and be on hold for 30min or more and then wasting most of my day on stuff like this, which par for the course with Portuguese ISPs (and well every Portuguese business) So having Starlink is a godsend for me, it just works! 🙏
