Also widely varying download speed.

network itself.  Distinct upload and download bloat tests would help in
determining whether it's at your end or the remote end.  You should be able
to use dslreports.com/speedtest to determine that.

I'm not the OP but from the reddit thread (
https://www.reddit.com/r/Starlink/comments/k0dwon/starlink_and_bufferbloat_testing/.compact),
this is their dslreports test:

It does look like the main problem is in the uplink. The download speed
looks much more consistent in the dslreports test but I guess that
could also be due to the short duration of the test.

Another user from the reddit thread showing similar results:
