Having participated in dozens of (non-crypto) communities, my personal opinion is ethereum is about average, though definitely a lot better than other crypto. The area with a very large scope for improvement, is in "open discourse" of subjective matters. https://warpcast.com/vitalik.eth/0x7cb27023

i think where it’s lacking is the following: - discourse is too granular for all participants of the ecosystem to provide an opinion on (protocol people, onchainbuilders, onchain users). Perhaps we need reps from each side to talk it out on livestreams or something so a true community can form.

True, and also, a greater diversity of participants from different fields. Right now it's too many tech and finance people. Which goes to my criticism about poor discourse on subjective matters - Ethereum needs more artists, economists, designers, philosophers etc.

agreed very strongly. the general reason for this is that the promise of blockchains have been explained badly or not at all. I have a few ways of thinking about it I would love to share sometime. May make a post tomorrow. Essentially bite sized TLDRs of what crypto means for the world.

I’m building a venue for exactly this on ethereum. Great to see this discussion showing it’s going to be needed. I think the challenge will be getting app layer projects to realise that disagreement etc will not burn any social / political capital
