Don't worry about definitions. Explain exactly what you're discussing, then introduce the technical term as a shorthand. Even if people had a previous understanding of that term, they'll know what you're talking about, which is all that matters.
I associate arguments about the meaning of the word "decentralization" with pseudo-arguments about how nobody wants to run a server that require "decentralization" to mean that everybody has to run a server.
- flagrant_taco 3y agoThe definitions are interesting to me because the terms are often used as as punchline with little extra context. Agreed that the context of how a person intends to use each term is more important. I just wish we could have a consistent definition so it didn't require a full explantion each time.
