No, I wouldn't, but I am looking at getting Starlink (Elon Musk's Satellite Internet) as a backup, I just got the accepted letter last week.
I do know a lot of places in the world are not in the same position I am and some of these less typical solutions are life changing for them. There are many areas of the world where a $35 Raspberry Pi can change someone's life and give them the ability to use the Internet when they couldn't before.
Just because it isn't a good solution for you or me, doesn't mean it can't be life changing for someone else.

I signed up for the Starlink early access as well. I haven't heard back from them yet. It honestly seems a little expensive for the speed compared to what I am getting through Spectrum. I think they are going to have to fix that if they want it to be truly accessible to a large part of the population. Did you see my post a while ago about Helium? I thought of you when I was writing the post. It seemed like something you would find interesting.

Their target was 1Gbit @ 20ms ping, they have since upped it to 10Gbit. The beta is only 50-150MBps but it is likely going to get much faster.

Ah, okay, that makes more sense then. Even 1 Gbit would be pretty decent but if they can get it up to 10, that would be amazing. The 50 to 150 is what I saw and that is what caused my reservations.
