Lately, I've been debating whether to go on the mainnet or run an L2. The mainnet is like taking a taxi downtown—reliable experience, but just looking at the gas makes me want to walk in place. L2 is like shared bikes—cheap and convenient, but crossing chains is like carrying the bike upstairs, and the money saved ends up being spent on the hassle.



My current compromise is pretty basic: for small daily transactions and frequent operations, I stay on L2; if I need to hold long-term or worry about contract issues, I go back to the mainnet and pay a sort of "mental tax." Honestly, it's not about technical choices; it's just my laziness.

As for the recent hype around modularity and DA layers, developers are excited as if they've discovered a new continent, while users just have one expression: so how much am I actually paying when I click confirm? Anyway, I look at the gas first and then consider my faith—being stubborn is also part of risk control.
