At the end of the day, there are actually better electric cars now for the price. Even starlink is starting to get major market competition for cheaper.

Everyone and their dog wants to gunk up LEO with their soon-to-end-space-flight-forever space junk

Ok, so list the ones I can buy today

Objects in LEO fall quickly (months to single-digit years) without station-keeping, mostly from atmospheric drag. Anything we put there wouldn't contribute to a long-term Kessler Syndrome situation. It's geosynchronous Earth orbit (GEO) we have to worry about, but once you're up that high there's a lot more room for everything.

Kessler syndrome is specifically about LEO, and the damage done by debris from collissions, though. Like, that was Kessler's whole thing.

Also introduces small amounts of bad metals in the air. It's one of the reasons wooden satellites are starting to be sent up.

Doo you happen to have a good, informative link? Or perhaps a company name I could look up?

This sounds incredibly cool.
