Ethereum is too slow and expensive.

How can we retain users with horrible UX and no apps?

Ethereum will never scale - L2 centric roadmap might be the move.

L2s were a mistake we should have scaled the L1!

*EF announces plans to focus on L1 scalability roadmap*

Is this a joke? Five years? Way too slow.

- "Anyone from anywhere with a good idea can be taken seriously" - Ben Edgington

- 10+ diff client teams working towards a shared technical roadmap

- Thousands of people around the world making meaningful contributions to the space

These are some of the things that make Ethereum special. But we can't have those things and expect to scale at a pace that meets the demands of consumers. And that is OK.
