According to this item, "the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF) today announced the availability of the Decentralized Web Node (DWN) Community Instance... personal data stores that eliminate the need for individuals to trust apps to responsibly use and protect their data." Now I haven't tried using this yet and don't know exactly how it works. But it does relate to a use case I'm working on - creating a web application that lives entirely in the browser using nothing but local storage. DWN would allow me to use the same credentials on different computers - at least, I think that's how it would work. (Why a browser-based application? Because, as someone once said, "the fediverse lives in the client". More on this in the fall.
