During the scaling debate, months before the UASF cleared the path to a true understanding of Bitcoin, community, and consensus, as a newbie, what was your viewpoint on “big blocks or small blocks”? I was also a newbie with a different perspective. Cool

Personally? I felt very hurt by the fees because I was using a site that adjusted fees and it made me pay a lot of money. But guess what? I found out how to use Electrum to set my own fees. I saw that actually even with 100 satoshi per byte fees I actually paid very little.

If it was all equal and about fees only I would choose the cheaper one but even as a newbie it was easy to see the people who opted for the split were commercial, thinking about money, were not as good about developing concerns as Bitcoin, and I was not convinced about block security (as in, 51% attack) as so many altcoins show they are vulnerable. Imagine, since the time I was new, LTC, ETH and others always have network down times, and reorganization and confusion. Never with Bitcoin except because of the BCH fork,,, to my newbie understanding.

So anyway, long story short I was not a small blocker but a regular blocker;)

Like if you have a computer, and you always have option of buying more HDD or just keeping your disk cleaner and more efficient.
