I really never understood the decentralized thing. Bitcoin is decentralized and that's important but the rest of these chains just need to work and not cost 3 months pay to do a transaction because the network gets a little busy. I don't know why everyone tries to claim they're decentralized and I understand even less why so many people believe it. If anything it just seems to hinder progress.

Exactly do I need to have my games be decentralised? No, do I need my shitposts to be broadcast to a bunch of nodes taking up space and offering no value for that storage? No, cloud services and SQL databases work just fine, they are cheaper and more efficient, I think decentralisation is used as a marketing gimmick so people will stomach sub par performance they wouldn't accept if this thing just said I am a game and not a blockchain game
