In a world with even “digital-natives” increasingly don’t understand basic file management, and where it’s more and more common for user data to be siloed per-app even on desktops, I propose a corollary to Zawinski’s Law: “All apps which don’t store data transparently in the file system are doomed to implement their own limited and fragile filesystem equivalent”
New #indieweb libraries: taproot/micropub-adapter and taproot/indieauth!

Feedback appreciated, either as replies, GH issues, or at indieweb.org/discuss
