Nextcloud Social

🎉 Nextcloud becomes part of the federated social networks!

The app is in alpha stage, so it’s time for you to get involved! 👩‍💻

Some requirements in this alpha stage are that your Nextcloud:

• must use a real SSL certificate
• must be accessible from the internet
• must run on the default port

• 🙋 Find your friends: No matter if they use Nextcloud, 🐘 Mastodon, 🇫 Friendica, and soon ✱ Diaspora, 👹 MediaGoblin and more – you can follow them!
• 📜 Profile info: No need to fill out more profiles – your info from Nextcloud will be used and extended.
• 👐 Own your posts: Everything you post stays on your Nextcloud!
• 🕸 Open standards: We use the established ActivityPub standard!
• 🎨 Nice illustrations: Made by Katerina Limpitsouni of unDraw.
