00:31:00 Benjamin Bollen: so this needs a specific browser, or just to examine the RDF/ triplet store?
00:31:35 Arne Hassel: All of them run in normal web browsers - they’re simple web apps. But we usually call them Pod Browsers because they let you browse Solid Pods
00:31:50 Benjamin Bollen: right
00:32:46 Gyuri Lajos: pod the government issues you when you were born? did I hear correct>
00:35:13 Benjamin Bollen: can you store arbitrary data, or is it always as a triplet?
00:35:59 Arne Hassel: There’s also a list of Pod Management apps on Solid Applications · Solid
00:37:40 Arne Hassel: In theory you can upload any kinds of files to a Pod, but it depends a bit on the Solid server implementation. But it usually allows you to upload JSON files, simple text files, photos, and videos

00:59:26 Fernando Aires: I was wondering how do you expand the value proposition (data ownership via solid+monetization) to non-tech oriented users. Is there a composing interface integrated on itme.online? Other platforms?
01:07:25 Arne Hassel: Is the options for useThing a superset of the options for useSWR?
01:10:48 Benjamin Bollen: is there synchronicity, or consensus resolution or is this resolved by the pod server
