A popularization article on the Solid project

I don’t think there’s any need for that.

Yes, exactly.
Other communities like Mozilla or indieweb already wrote much about it – no need for duplicates.

Instead of throwing rocks, let’s all inspire each other on how to improve.

Yes, exactly.
It was the reason why I invited SOLID to a watertower 70km away from you.
Had rent rooms, appartments and a cinema initially.
No problem cause when Chris and /me met you at FOSDEM afterwards, I said, maybe Chris and me can have a coffee at Ghent. Then you said Boston is better.
It gave me a very good impression and trust.
A year passed but then the pandemic came, so no problem.

Then we had a huge conference in Prag.
Then we did Offdem in Brussels. btw: got a car, can catch you up.
Then we did the remote 2020 conference.

Also there is a W3C Social CG.
“continue and extend the development of vocabularies, formats and protocols to support the distributed / federated social web, as well as related technologies”

Unfortunately you did your own 5 people group -
my browser search seems to break there, I searched for all the social W3C recommendations there, like ActivityPub, webmention, Micropub. Need to fix search probably.

My dream lives on:
To use SOLID as a generic server for the Open Protocol, I felt in love with.

Now that I organized rC3 ActivityPub assembly, the next meeting is on Saturday.
See you there?

Just an info:
There is a W3C recommended protocol thing for youtube.
It is called peertube. We are on conf.tube
