Did anyone else see this last night?

I'm at my deer camp in west TX, and last night at around 10pm or so, I see this set of bright red, orange, yellow, and bluish streaks across the night sky that lasted for maybe 20 seconds! I was so stunned by what I was witnessing that by the time I had presence of mind to video it, the event was already over. I looked online and saw no mention of it, but I did find a list of expected satellite re-entries, so perhaps what I saw was either the SpaceBee-173 or Starlink-1984 satellites re-entering the atmosphere. It looked exactly like what is shown in this video:

Holy smokes! That's awesome. I've seen a much smaller version of something like that but never anything close to that big.

It must be; that's what it looked like. I guess it could've been a meteor, though it looked so close to what you see in that ATV-1 Re-entry video I found, I was thinking it was a satellite. I found a website that said the 2 satellites in the OP were thought to re-enter the atmosphere last night.
