Just penned a little post about why the "backend-for-frontend" model is categorically and fundamentally wrong for building applications on top of Solid: https://forum.solidproject.org/t/why-backend-for-frontend-for-solid-is-categorically-wrong/6673

Building a decentralized web application without blockchain? It’s possible thanks to the project!
Join me at on Thursday to learn how.

Dear lazyweb, I’m having an opportunity to ditch some + nightmare and replace it with a minimalistic library. Would https://reef.js be a good option ? Or should I try to push or instead ?

What we really need in the , as the next iterative progression of and its implementations like etc. IMHO. https://solidproject.org to store all posts and pictures etc per user, not per instance or account. This would radically reduce the scope of an implementation and allow for frictionless migration between instances. This does NOT necessarily need any change to the standard. It's an implementation detail, AFAICS.

Technically you would link your instance to content in your pod to create a post/toot. And when you migrate between instances, you "simply" replace the links. The instance could cache the content to speed up delivery and federation. But you would be in control and can also see how your content spreads without having to rely on third parties. Think about it :) More decentralisation. Better business opportunities.

When your instance (admin) does something you don't like, you migrate to another one. This process would ONLY change the links to your pod content. So it is a low-cost operation. Of course you would have 1:n connections, meaning you can share the same content at many places. E-Mail, ActivityPub, BlueSky, you name it. Maybe even Instagram, Facebook etc in a future where personal ownership of data is more valued :)

@jwildeboer

Are you aware of by @assemblee_virtuelle (Sébastien Rosset)?

https://activitypods.org

Other than that has made quite a few outreach attempts to project. There's some very fine people in the community there, but the core project (imho) could focus more on community formation.

If you want to implement some sort of feature toggles/switches in an application, and that means you have a class and an interface for each toggle, which only has an IsEnabled bool property to check if it's on, isn't that a bit of overengineering?

Hey, friends, we have some news 🙂

@dat_ecosystem I am really happy to hear that.

At the time I felt I was somewhat like the "annoying fly in the ointment" 😜 because I came with more non-technical considerations related to positioning of the and strategy towards long-term adoption.

Something I've since done too for the project, and am now doing for the , I am afraid 😬

Generally speaking I feel a weakness in is deepdiving tech, with unclarity on bigger picture and needs that must be addressed.

One of the most exciting tech developments at the moment is the advent of the web standard, which lets people "store their data securely in decentralized data stores called Pods. Pods are like secure personal web servers for your data."

Is it technically possible for to support the Solid standard? Or this would be something apps like should implement?
