Sadly, part of the reality right now is, that there is no perfect swap-in replacement for what Starlink is being used for,

100% agree on that but, like you said, I wanted to see a more… encouraging way of saying it. This sounds a bit too much like an already failed effort. Yesterday morning, I was reading the latest US demands on Ukraine (imho, we should all closely read them in order to understand what the USA has now turned into and what kind of treatment we can expect from them in the (near) future) and I think we really should not let Ukraine down at the time they have to face Putin’s Russia and now also have to face the new bully on the block, Trump’s USA—which won’t be kind with them the moment they realize they may not get all what they asked from Ukraine (and hopefully they won’t get it). Like, not kind at all.
