$100/mo isn't too bad when no comparable options are available, I would even consider it for backup Internet if it proves to be reasonably reliable

I have Comcast "gigabit" (usually see around 300-400 mbps). Price has gone from $75/mo to $125/mo in the past year, and is apparently rising again to $199. They also won't allow me to buy internet without cable. They've also imposed data caps.
I will take the hit on speed and reliability with no complaints because I'm ecstatic to tell Comcast to shove it.

If there is no competition, they will get away with it too. Yes it will be a beautiful day to say goodbye to 8 page cable bills..
Plug in a antenna for TV. There are lots of alternatives to traditional cable now days and you wont be paying for corporates news and programming from those political hacks.. I always resented paying about $10 a month just to cover the ESPN part of the package.

I always resented paying about $10 a month just to cover the CNN, and ESPN part of the package. Just give me data, they can keep the cable TV and all the crap they fund and lobby for.. I said goodbye to Netflix too..

I live in a large metro area and this is an interesting option. I can get wireless internet through TMO with no data caps for $50/mo, but the speeds are terrible (2-20) because the towers are saturated. Cox has better speeds (*50+ down) for $65/mo, but they also have 1.25gb data caps.
If starlink can deliver 20-150 with no data caps for $100/mo, that's a compelling option, especially if it's symmetrical.
*During the start of the pandemic they didn't have enough fiber and speeds were as bad or worse than TMO, but things have been better since they put in a bunch more fiber.
