One of the problems with Solid is that it's definitely guilty of the sort of criticism that surfaced (brought up by a reader) in related to some of the things discussed in an earlier post about "Library JSON" <https://tomcritchlow.com/2020/04/15/library-json/ https://tomcritchlow.com/2020/04/15/library-json/>:
> That said, the thing that kills the indieweb is too much enthusiasm for specs, too few[...] implementations, and, ironically, too much focus on the ‘indie’ (building complicated self-hosted everything-machines) and not enough on the ‘web’ (noticing if anyone’s using any of the things you built). So if there’s a killer implementation and good content at the start, then momentum would potentially just carry you through.
One thing I'm fond of is a turn of phrase earlier coined by Noel De Martin, a contributor to Solid: "Autonomous Data". The intention to put resources behind "Autonomous Data" as a brand/movement was set aside to focus on the Solid effort instead. I think, though, that the term is well-suited for the rough ideas presented in this post. (Better than "triple entry blogging", in any case. Better than "Solid" or "Zero Data"[1], too, in my opinion.)
