If I was in a situation where starlink was only option for connectivity, sure, but at the front lines cell service isn't really reliable as whole towers are missing and/or damaged and even if the cell tower was there it's not a quarantee that it's connected to anything or has power. Starlink doesn't require a (literal) ton of infrastructure on the ground around you and that's why it's been really useful, and often the only option, Ukraine has.

Starlink as a technology is really cool and when it came to the market I hoped I would get to play with it some day, but now as the company is ran by that twat who shovels DoD money into his own pockets and is on his knees for russians the interest and 'geek factor' isn't really there anymore.
