Advancing Web standards to empower individuals and groups.

Curious what others think of this? This was linked in Tim Berners-Lee’s open letter on the state of the web at 35yrs.

    Another project with dumb explanation how it works like “it enables more secure and decentralized communication on the web”. Yeah, thanks.

    For what I understand this is a file format that want to allow transfership of my algorithm preferences, my username, friendlist etc between services, like from YouTube to Twitch? Not going to happen. And there are more important things to fix first.

    Seems like another band aid. This time for a problem of decentralized services tying user ID to their domain name not allowing portability.

      Swing and a miss.

      You didnt bother to read about it beyond a marketing blurb, so you completely fail to grasp what Solid is. You then proceed to confidently draw erroneous conclusions based on a spurious premise that we have to fix everything or nothing at all.
