At a macro level, yet another category where prices will continue to increase and buyer reaction will be subdued by lower installments and longer terms. Like 50 year mortgages and 7 year car loans.

But of course, this is the point. Phones are a durable good at this point. The focus on services and more financing options are the next levers without innovation.

I keep hearing this refrain that Starlink is going to connect everyone. LTE already covers 93% of the population globally [1]. There are obviously dead spots but I really don't see the economic case for Starlink coverage. I frequently travel with a mini and I appreciate the near certainty of connection but it seems like a luxury item. The vast majority of the time cell connection is fine. I suppose Starlink could eat all the telcos but it seems like they aren't too far behind and this connectivity will be commoditized.

This is an interesting point. There is some satisfaction from the likes, the comments, and the assurance that _someone_ is seeing your frustration even if the company does nothing.

Is this snippet from their Twitter bio clear?

"If you need assistance, please submit a ticket: http://fastmail.com/support"

Their messaging probably could have been better here to say "we're looking into this. If you have time, please file a support request".

On Fastmail.com, the support request is two clicks away, under the big ? button in the upper right and "Contact Support". I'm not sure how much time you have but it took me less than 1 minute to find this button and submit from my logged in account.
