ive made the case for why app-specific chains can be replicated in app-general environments. i've made the case for how steem's economics become limp inside an application-general environment such as eth, even an eth using bandwidth rate limiting. i've made the case for how SMTs see far less synergy in application-general environments if the core token doesn't support distributions for content creation and curation. haven't even gone into how impractical it would be to migrate a web-application (Steemit (not Steem!)) from AWS to a blockchain-based storage (think 21 nodes times the number of servers we run...). i'm prepared to back up my views to hopefully see people learn this stuff and not spread shallow, unsupported views that aren't defensible from technology and economic perspectives.
but please distract from the lack of support for the claims by trying to turn this into an ad hominem... no.
Hey @ned, I beleive that in order for this place not to become an echo chamber, all the relevant criticism must be heard and weighted. So I would like to ask you to expand on your presented cases. Additionally, as I am personally pretty far from being a software engineer, I would like to ask you to do it as close as possible to ELI5 terms. Thanks in advance
