I guess everyone is different, but when I'm out camping (in a tent and a luxurious air mattress), the last thing I want to do is respond to work emails and stream movies. I'm usually too busy hiking, mountain biking, swimming, exploring, walking, seeing new things, starting the campfire, cooking over the fire, chopping wood, making coffee over the fire, looking at the stars and the glorious Milky Way, listening to the wild life all around me, enjoying the fecundity of the forest, drinking beer with my wife, enjoying one-on-one time with her in the woods, and not worrying about an internet connection, looking at a screen, or doing anything whatsoever remotely related to work, digital technology, or movies.
I can't do ANY of that when I'm tethered to my Comcast link in my office. With Starlink I can get out and wander cross country, working in the mornings from glorious locations. It's a life changer for those of us lucky enough to have jobs that can be fully remote!
