Streams are Hubzilla's timelines. The equivalent to Mastodon's personal timeline is the channel stream. However, it is more flexible: Only direct messages, posts/comments marked with a star or posts/comments from the channel itself can be shown. Also, all posts/comments from a certain privacy group, all threads from a certain forum (amongst others, Hubzilla recognises Friendica discussion groups and {{Internal link |target=What is Lemmy? |link-name=Lemmy}} communities as such), all filed posts/comments from a certain category (similar to Mastodon's bookmarks, but with folders as categories) can be shown, and all posts/comments from a certain contact can be shown. | Streams are Hubzilla's timelines.

Hubzilla | Hubzilla has an optional public stream, pubstream in short, which is the equivalent to either Mastodon's local timeline or Mastodon's federated timeline. It can be activated by the hub admin, it is off by default, and most hubs keep it off in order to stay out of trouble because it is unmoderated. | ||
All timelines have three sorting algorithms: threads by most recent post; threads by most recent comment; unthreaded single posts and comments. The sorting for the channel stream can be selected by the owner, the sorting for the pubstream can only be selected by the admin. | All timelines have three sorting algorithms: threads by most recent post; threads by most recent comment; unthreaded single posts and comments.

On March 3rd, 2024, Hubzilla 9 introduced repeating, a feature like "retweeting" on Twitter/X, "reblogging" on Tumblr or "boosting" on Mastodon, i.e. forwarding posts as they are. | |||
Also, posts and comments can be "shared" by referencing them in a new post or comment. It's basically the same as a "quote-tweet", but without copying the original post into the editor. For those who receive the post or comment, the reference is expanded to the whole shared post or comment, mentioning the author and giving a link to the original. | |||
It is possible to share multiple posts/comments in one new post/comment. | It is possible to share multiple posts/comments in one new post/comment. | ||
