Matches in Ruben’s data for { ?s ?p "Who decides what your Solid pod looks like? For a long time, the answer has been the first one who writes, decides. That is, the first app to sculpt documents and containers in your pod determines where other apps need to look for data. Unfortunately, this creates an undesired dependency between apps, which now have to agree amongst each other on how to store things. Yet Solid promises apps that will seamlessly and independently reuse data in order to provide us with better and safer experiences. At the heart of this contradiction is that the mental model we’re using for Solid pods no longer works. This model restricts our solution space and is a main reason why apps struggle to reuse each other’s data. In this blog post, I argue why we should stop thinking of a pod as a set of documents, and start treating it as the hybrid graph it actually is. By adjusting our perspective, Solid apps can become more independent of variations in data—and thus more powerful for us."@en }
