What has more potential for decentralization? Limited supply ASICs that cost thousands of dollars to even get started or the ubiquity of CPUs that every pleb has all around us?

There are 2 major ASIC manufacturers that have a stranglehold over new supply, KYC your ass, and know exactly why you're using them. You get the sloppy seconds after they've been using them for a year if you're lucky. Then your non existent hash power is eclipsed by corporate mining farms and two mining pools that make up ~58% of blocks

The situation is not very different for you

Oh and those pools are already starting to censor, nice
