Tim Berners Lee has Solid
- IndySun 4mo agoI like his vision. Can you recommend a pod? The UK based Solid Community ones (and others, apparently) are 'experimental'. "To use this system, you must understand that we cannot make any guarantees regarding the security and privacy of data that you may store in a solidcommunity.net Solid pod, or concerning the system's functionality and availability."
- thisismissem 4mo agoI used to work for timbl's company Inrupt on Solid on the SDK team. Inrupt no longer appears to be doing solid (or at least it's very well hidden if it still exists). AT Protocol achieved what Solid envisioned without the inane complexities of rdf and json-ld, which were the biggest learning blockers to people actually adopting Solid.
