Trying to understand the Solana hate. Where do you stand?

I’ve been lurking for a while and still haven’t figured out if the Solana hate is something of the past or if there’s still genuine disdain from the whole Reddit community.

I know that most of it stems from past chain outages but looking into other players (eth for example) that’s not something exclusive to Solana. Many other chains have experienced similar network issues without facing the same level of backlash.

Once you get past the noise, Solana seems to be in better shape than other top 10 chains. Solana Pay, Institutional partnerships, gaming, chain speed, hackathons everywhere, etc. – these are all growth indicators that Polygon, Avalanche, Tron, and others promised to deliver on and failed. Imo Solana seems to be in a good direction and deserves the growth it has seen these last few months.

Admittedly I’m a huge solana bull (heavy bags) but where does everyone stand on this?
