Every now and then this gets shared again and every time I am struck by what a terrible job the front page does of explaining what Solid is and why anyone would want to use it. Like, okay, yeah, "control my own data" is a nice pitch in this day and age I guess, but... what can I do with it? "Any kind of data can be stored in a Solid pod, including normal files like you might store in Google Drive or Dropbox" - that sounds kinda useful, where's the link to SolidFile? Is there even a SolidFile app or is that just a thing someone could make with this protocol?
Hell, where's the front page link to check out the list of any apps using Solid? It's like two or three random clicks to find this page (https://solidproject.org/apps) if you are curious, and it's super uninspiring - why does one of the apps in the "Showcase" section at the top not even have a description?
Solid always just feels like a solution looking for a problem.
