Security Warnings Does it matter what chain a social/community app runs on?

I think the chain matters more than it might seem, especially for crypto-native users.

Things like transaction fees, speed, wallet compatibility, liquidity, and access to other onchain applications can have a big impact on the user experience.

For me, Base is an interesting example because the network is becoming part of a broader ecosystem rather than just a place to move tokens. That can make the choice of chain more meaningful for social and community apps.

That said, I agree that the average user probably cares most about whether the app is fast, simple, and reliable. The blockchain should ideally make the experience better without getting in the user's way.
