Solid seems like a great technological idea. It empowers people to own their data and give others and apps access to it. This is empowering.
But!!!! people want useful things. Things that help them solve problems so they want to pick up those things. Solid is lacking these solutions right now.
Where is my todo list, contact app, calendar app, and so forth... all built on solid? This is an opportunity. But, until these kinds of the solutions exist for solid it's going to stay as a neat technology that's not bridged the gap to be useful.
