'''Hubzilla''' (formerly known as '''Redmatrix''') is a modular webserver based operating system which includes technologies for publishing, social media, file sharing, photo sharing, chat and more, including the ability to develop custom modules. These services connect across server and administrative boundaries through the communication protocol Zot, providing decentralized and nomadic identity within the Zot network, while message federation is supported over Zot, [[ActivityPub]], [[OStatus]] and the [[diaspora*]] protocol, making Hubzilla interoperable with most distributed social networks and the [[Fediverse]].
