It's all your posts and replies as a user. While they currently host the only* PDS themselves, the end goal is for every end user to have their own PDS. Inrupt/SOLID calls this concept a "pod". *(actually they just onboa

I have a 2012 Nexus 7 and I'm wary of people saying they didn't have performance problems until Lollipop. If I was using it for much more than an e-reader the lag would have forced me to upgrade a year ago. I don't question t
