Does anyone have a good explanation on why Solana is more centralized than Ethereum? I can't tell if that's true, or just a meme (like how Bitcoin is more decentralized than Ethereum)

Ok, I realized as soon as I said it

I can’t afford a Solana node

And to answer the real Q no, afaik Solana validation is basically data farm bros/VCs
Like everyone is Lido

How much does it cost to run a Solana validator? More than the 32 ETH staking minimum? And even if small validators are priced out, are there enough medium-sized validators on the network to spread things out?
