Sorry, but I don’t agree. Sure there are a few who won’t touch it as they think it’s vaporware, but that’s only because they aren’t really paying attention and didn’t understand the broad aims of the project in the first place.
Most people though are completely in the dark about SN … so nothing damaged as they simply don’t know. And that will fix itself going forward.
So sorry @Knosis, but simply put, there is nothing here. No worries at all. I understand the frustrations, but the original dream was enormous and if you and others don’t grasp that, there is simply nothing for it. David is being honest, he’s not going to lead people on or make compromises like many other crypto projects have done – we should have awe and respect for that IMO.
There is simply no means to predict a time of arrival when you don’t know the rate or route of travel. The route only appears straightforward when you are in the backseat, but when you get in the drivers seat of any R&D project it’s obvious that there are craters in the road and it takes a lot of time to maneuver around them … sometimes the road appears a dead end and you have to backtrack and take another fork.
Life is hard enough. Stop with the negativity based on nothing but your bad feelings.
