     @BBC This article at BBC about #Solid looks like some business-to-business promotion material stuffed with some "success stories".
     Still, this is not so clear, whether it is possible to bootstrap own Solid pod on device or hosting I would control or trust.
     #SmallWeb from this perspective sounds as something better.
     What you would say about that, @aral ?

     @koteisaev That’s cool. I’m not building the Small Web for big corps or governments but for people :)

     @aral Yeah I remember that they got venture capital funding, without specific details, though.
     From perspective of people concerned about their data, I find the Kitten apps and Domain infrastructure project close to that goal.
     Sadly, big corps and govts may find Solid as something more "formalized" and therefore "more understandable" for them.
