I am genuinely curious on useful applications for a decentralized ledger, so I skimmed this linkdump. > https://github.com/OffcierCia/DeFi-Developer-Road-Map Background and development information, no applications. This link, by itself, has a massive number of links. > https://github.com/bkrem/awesome-solidity This links is later duplicated, but is also mostly background and developer information. There is one section titled "deployed on Ethereum mainnet" which seems to be mostly dev tools again - rarity, an MMO (example UI: https://raritymmo.com/). That's kind of cool, if unlikely to be monetizable. - ronin, a sidechain implementation to support another game called "Axie Infinity". > https://github.com/bekatom/awesome-ethereum Another giant linkfarm. Has a "DAPPS" section. Again mostly dev tools or tools for interacting with Ethereum its

elf, but a few things that look like applications: - a decentralized crowdfunding platform: err, doesn't the money eventually go to a particular endpoint? What's the point of decentralizing this. - zeronet decentralized websites: bitcoin doesn't provide compute infrastructure or a high-bandwidth distribution mechanism (bittorrent is used for this), so...what does this actually _do_? auth can be handled by TLS. - augur: platform for prediction markets. interesting idea, but ... ultimately the actual result has to be certified? I'm out of time but in general I haven't seen a simple example of what problems a decentralized ledger solves, ignoring all the technical issues like energy use and 51% attacks.

Yeah, no thank you, I don't come to Hacker News for crypto talk, the bias is comical and the talking points are recycled as a new article every week (scams!, speculation!, hype!, wasted electricity!, tether!) All of those have rebuttals, but I don't want to get into the politics of it, there's plenty of that already. Can we please talk about the fucking tech here? I'm talking about what's made with it, not some sort of philosophical debate about how authoritarian we should be to protect people we deem gullible, or who can spend electricity on what, or who is allowed to speculate. For those who actually are interested in the tech and not some faux moral crusade, here's better "awesome" lists, that are actually awesome, not toxic. https://github.com/OffcierCia/DeFi-Developer-Road-Map https://github.com/bkrem/awesome-solidity https://github.

I like them when I am new to a technology or programming language. For example last year I spent a significant amount of time writing Go code and doing Solidity/blockchain development. Being able to scan https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go, https://github.com/bkrem/awesome-solidity, and https://github.com/gianni-dalerta/awesome-nft for general resources, projects, guides, or just general information was a nice resource to have in my back pocket. I think your point is valid, but it's also a personal expectation of what you get out of the resource. I think the fact that they are open ended helps both developers who are trying to reach an audience and people who are browsing for new tools, ideas, etc.
