Onewebb will actually exist because it has real investors to pay for it.
Starlink is a meme.
Starlink seems more capable, but OneWeb is more focused on internet. I'd give the edge to OneWeb since they have the experience with satellites. However, the guy running it has a beef with Elon and won't use SpaceX rockets. This puts them at an enormous cost disadvantage compared to Starlink which will utilize SpaceX reusable rockets to cut costs.

SpaceX needs to have literally 10x the number of launches as OneWeb to complete their constellation.
different constellations dude. Full spacex (14k sats with LLEO and LEO) vs full oneweb are quite different. Plus, spacex can start charging customers with even 400 or less active satellites.
Meanwhile, in oneweb land arstechnica.com

Can you fuck off? The article has good sources and makes a point, regardless of how much Berger likes SpaceX personally.
The article doesn't make a "point" at all, and as is typical the assclown writer is already getting called out in the comments for posting incorrect information.
Take a hint and stop reading that rag.
Exactly. Also, Blue Origin is actually going to generate Cash through selling engines.
And as I said, older people don't really care about memes. You can check on linkedin by simply searching for "propulsion engineer blue origin" and "propulsion engineer spaceX". All the people who show up for Blue are generally older, have worked previously for other rocket builders, e.g. are more experienced and qualified. The rule of the business atm is that SpaceX gets the guys fresh out of college, and after a couple of years of experience at SpaceX, they are good enough for Blue Origin, ULA, etc. and switch.
