    As far as I understood, I always thought that they just used other people’s rockets to piggyback their own satellites to space basically for free

      Unless you want to separate starlink from spacex it’s kinda the other way around.

      I think spacex was adding starlink deployment to all their rockets and their “plan” was to launch other satellites and nasa projects, then get the starlink stuff up there for less.
