Saying you’re impressed by a decentralized app because it “reliably doesn’t break” is like saying you’re impressed by a plant-based meat because it doesn’t make you vomit.🤮 “Not breaking” is table stakes, especially when well-established competitors like Google Docs and Notion exist. Most people won’t use a half-broken Google Docs just because it’s decentralized. And we shouldn’t encourage people in general to use such software until it’s better than Google Docs. We should not be enthusiastic about products simply because they are decentralized. We should be excited about them because they are excellent. Mediocrity is the enemy of decentralization.
