The whole thing shouldn't work like this—where consumer-facing apps are just decoration layered on top of some core infrastructure. That's backwards thinking. These applications need to be built as genuine solutions first, not as afterthoughts or cosmetic additions to a pre-existing system. The architecture itself should be designed around actual user needs from the ground up.

yeah this is exactly the problem nobody wants to admit... technically speaking, most projects just bolted UX on top of whatever they already built. insufficient validation of actual user needs during architecture phase. they'll ship it anyway tho lol

It's completely overhyped now. Many projects are doing the opposite—building infrastructure first and then adding a superficial layer.

Come on, we're still discussing this outdated stuff. The real problem is that most teams haven't thought about the users at all; they only care about how to slap it on and be done with it.

I've seen too many of these post-hoc applications, they're just shell companies.

You're right, that's the problem with Web3 now—fancy infrastructure but no one can use it. --- Actually, on the other hand, how can you decorate a house without first laying the pipes... --- That's why so many projects fail; they are completely backwards. --- It's the same old story, very few projects actually follow through. --- I deeply agree, but honestly, most teams don't even have the money to start with user needs. --- Isn't this just the difference between Solana and Ethereum...

You are right, it's just that now all these projects are putting the cart before the horse. --- Wake up, everyone. User experience is not just a sticker that can be pasted on. --- Starting from needs is the right way; projects that do it the other way are doomed to fail. --- Build the core infrastructure first and then think about applications? You're doing it backwards, brother. --- That's why so many apps feel awkward to use. --- Architectural design should start from user pain points, not from guesswork. --- It's interesting; finally, someone dares to say this. --- Exactly, the relationship between infrastructure and applications has always been reversed. --- Well said, but most projects simply don't care about this.
