There are people hear who think Ethereum is a decent blockchain. I don't even know what to say to them. Words cannot describe how much I hate the Ethereum network and all its layer 2 which are just VC backed chains.

Ethereum is dominant on smart contracts, tokens, so much so you can't escape solidity language which is from ethereum.
my argument is that it is not usable. The blockchain is slow and expensive to transact on. 99.9% of the people on hive cannot use Ethereum on a daily. There is no practical reason to use Ethereum. most people use it for speculative reasons.
You're 2 years late for that argument, almost every NFT on opensea is on ethereum or layer 2 ethereum like polygon, optimism etc. All ethereum tools are used for smart contract, they invented smart contract.. ethereum is now proof of stake, fast than before but lot to catch up so L2 does the work. If not ethereum what you want to use TRON? Hive? lol.
what are you doing on Hive then? I can bet you spend more time on hive than any of the chains you've spoken about. That already proves my point. If they are superior chains than you won't be using Hive, but that is not the case.
That is the problem with crypto, you are hyping something you don't use and shitting on the one you do. Remember we are all a sum total of the decision we make. If you are using a platform you think or know is shitty, it says a lot about you.
Good for you
That was not my argument. Eth has a higher market cap than Hive. That is apparent.
You are making a baseless argument which has nothing to do with the point i raised. I was never arguing about market cap or developers' preferences. Hive is a better chain than eth based on speed, security and scalability.
Which argument , i am just correcting your emotional trainwreck.
Sure.. if you say so.
Ethereum is to blockchain as Windows is to Apple. Even if Apple products and operating systems are superior in every way to Windows systems, Windows systems are more accessible to a large group of people. Ubiquity matters.
My question: is Ethereum really accessible? The cost of transacting on the chain is steep hence, the need for layer 2 but those are also controlled by VCs. It really doesn't appeal to me. I understand for developers Ethereum is gold but it doesn't really work for the things I value like socialfi and even gaming (to some degree).
What U say @ Ethereum is true. It's ++ accessible than Hive only N D sense of ubiquity: it's everywhere, & far more people know @ it than Hive. Hive may B superior 2 Ethereum, but Ethereum is widely known. Unix has the same problem as Hive.
I second to you, never got a hang of it and the gas fees are insane.
