Recently, I saw everyone discussing modular blockchains and asking what it really means for ordinary users. To put it simply, you won't suddenly earn twice as much just because it's "more modular." The two things that users can truly perceive are: avoiding high fees and delays when transferring or interacting; and not feeling like you're moving across countries when switching between different applications. Actually, modularity is more like breaking up the backend and reassembling it, which results in a more stable experience, faster confirmations, and a feeling of "using one account everywhere."
But don't be too idealistic; the information noise is still significant right now. Recently, on-chain data tools and tagging systems have been criticized for lagging or being misleading. I think this is also somewhat related to modularity: as more chains and bridges emerge, identities and fund flows become more fragmented, and relying solely on tags can easily lead to misattributing the "source of popularity." Later, I might continue to diagram the relationships between these chains and applications... otherwise, reading narratives every day can really cause confusion.
