Your response on ActivityPods and Solid – pretty spot on! I will toss in a couple more nuggets. Solid's kinda like having your own Google Drive, but you call the shots on who peeks into your stuff. It's all about files and folders. Sure, Solid uses RDF for the geeky metadata part, but at its heart, it's all about files. With ActivityPods, Instead of just playing with files, it uses something called an RDF Triple Store. Think of it as a smart way to store data that's all about connections and relationships. This means ActivityPods is more about mapping out how data is connected, like a big web of info, rather than just storing files. Super handy for social apps where who knows who, and who does what matters a lot. Like Solid, ActivityPods is big on you owning your data. But it's not just sitting in a digital drawer. It's active, social, and part of a bigger community. The author of ActivityPods has a very similar view of the social web compared to Evan P.
