You got the sources you asked for, but your sentiment wasn't wholly off.
There are still other crypto being mined on video cards.
So if you dont think that's worthwhile for all crypto there's still a lot of waste
If you specifically don't like bitcoin, you'd need to see what the other projects using video cards do to make an informed decision
I don’t know that I had a sentiment, I just had a doubt and a lack of bias
