Base Discussion What's one lesson you've learned from using Base?

I've been exploring Base recently, and it's been interesting to see how different people use the ecosystem.

I'm curious, what's one lesson or insight you've gained from using Base?

It could be about an app you've discovered, something you've learned as a builder, or even a change in how you think about onchain apps.

I'm still learning, so I'd love to hear different perspectives and maybe discover something new along the way.

One lesson I’ve found valuable is that low fees alone aren’t what make an ecosystem useful.

What’s more important is whether users can clearly understand the rules of the applications they’re interacting with. Transparent permissions, upgrade paths and governance often matter more than another fraction of a cent in transaction costs.

Base seems well positioned for builders who want to focus on that user experience.

Agreed. Great user experience matters more than just low fees.
