I’m starting to learn about this. Solid. Pods. It seems really cool. As a very basic example I created my own pod at https://wilcosky.inrupt.net. Then I was able to go to a basic public notes app someone created (https://notepod.vincenttunru.com/). I logged in with my pod URL (wilcosky.inrupt.net) and posted a test note. Then that note was stored in my pod. So, I have total control over my data. If Flarum jumped on this new "WWW re-do," one could log into a forum using their pod and all of their post data would get saved to their pod. I assume. But, I also assume this would have to be a completely separate Flarum product.
