In the last two months alone, Nostr users (decentralized twitter clone like Mastodon) sent each other 3 million tips over Bitcoin lightning. It works, it scales, it's been out for 5+ years now and continues to improve. I can send money to anybody on planet earth in under a second for a penny in fees which i can't even do with my bank account. But it's a failure. Lol.
Just saying, it does have legitimate problems. I have, for example, interacted with the polygon chain and have never interacted with the ethereum chain at all personally.
