Lately, the more I think about it, the more I feel that "what I see on the blockchain" is actually quite subjective... For the same transaction, some people see it instantly, while others see it with a delay of tens of seconds or even minutes. It's not necessarily that the chain is slow; more often, it's the nodes/RPC you're connected to queuing, or the indexers catching up. To put it simply, many apps don't display the blockchain itself, but rather "the on-chain perspective curated by others." If the curation is slow, you might think nothing has happened.

The modular, DA layer narrative that developers are talking about is flying high, but as an ordinary user, I mainly care about whether I can see the result immediately after I click. Anyway, when I encounter anomalies now, I first take a screenshot and save it (an old habit), then switch to a different RPC or check with a couple more browsers. It helps me stay calm: it's not my eyes playing tricks, maybe it's just delayed. That's all for now.
