Ethereum core developer Péter Szilágyi has shared his complex feelings about his role within the Geth team and the Ethereum Foundation over recent years. Despite expressing dissatisfaction with certain aspects of Ethereum, Szilágyi acknowledges its positive impact. He highlights a key issue as the discrepancy between public perception and his actual role, noting that the foundation often positions him as a leader, whereas he considers himself merely perceived as one. Szilágyi points out that defending Geth's image and principles frequently depletes his and his team's credibility.
