Is Solid primarily a privacy platform or an app platform

The point is, imho, that it is still such early days that basically any newcomer will be confused what Solid is, and depending on where they land - their first point of contact - will determine their first impression, and maybe opinion.

That could be standard / framework / ecosystem / platform / the-next-web, etcetera. It’s scope could be perceived as revolutionary / yet-another-web-framework. Something-with-which-you-can-build-anything. Open effort / commercial undertaking.

If their impression is inaccurate one hopes they decide to dig a bit further, ideally doing a deep-dive and start some pod-coding, but at a minimum hopefully to return later once the initiative gains more traction.
