Besides sky being totally polluted so one can’t even see stars and other natural objects any more, you do realize that more objects in space means more serious problems because of crowded space and debris flying around? And also debris falling on your head.
But yes, we really need more satellites for whatever reason…
These communication satellites are in relatively low orbit. They might be a temprorary problem but are cleared out quite fast when not actively maintained due to atmosphere drag and gravity. Problematic are the higher orbits.
You find it primitive to want to be able to study the universe from earth? Be it amateurs with their garden telescope or large professional installations. Even the current state already makes it hard to impossible to get decent images for science, that would only get worse.
And I for one don’t see ‘better mobile coverage’ as worthy enough to sacrifice earth bound astronomy for it
You might be german, but you’re also kind of a dick :) “primitivism” has nothing to do with being against this. If you can’t understand it, then I’m not going to waste my time explaining it to you. You can research the issues of launching shit into space willy nilly yourself.

You either think you’re funny (which you’re not, btw), or you’re pretty dumb.

Yeaaaah… Killing other people is an even less fruitful replacement for science

Chinese drones just use a mesh network, which is apparently enough for Russia to replace starlink
