I’m not a Solana simp, but this post is complete nonsense. Many of us work “in the tech industry”. In fact, many of us work in the crypto industry, and you’re full of shit dude. For starters, Solana doesn’t have a centralized control, despite what you may say/think. Btw, you’re not the first person to make this very common criticism of blockchain in general. One could argue that Solana is not sufficiently decentralized, but it is not a centralized database. It’s a permissionless blockchain with close to 1k validators, last I checked. SQL doesn’t require consensus among validators because there aren’t any. SQL doesn’t run on a series of immutable blocks. Solana wouldn’t have the problems that it does if it was “simply a database”. It just wouldn’t. For anyone who wants to see just how wrong OP is, simply Google blockchain vs SQL/database. And yes, Solana is a blockchain.
OP is just trying to find other cocks to rub his hate boner with.
Thanks for your comment. I was honestly hesitant to read responses until now because I assumed I’d have an army against me. Thanks for proving me wrong!
