        Okay, I guess my next big question is, what is hubzilla at its core? Is it a NextCloud alternative?

          I think originally it tried to be a Facebook alternative, but over time it developed into a personal cloud space of sorts. I would agree with the comparison to Nextcloud as of 5 years ago, but these days they pivoted into the enterprise space and isn’t that nice for home users any longer.

            Does Hubzilla have CardDAV and CalDAV support? I’m using NextCloud for calendar and contacts primarily, would be interesting to try Hubzilla as a replacement if it’s feasible.

                Sorry to bother you again, I was starting to look into Hubzilla and my brain started hurting, because I can’t understand how you federate contacts, calendar and file hosting. That said, I started looking into the contacts and calendar thing and this came up

                Hubzilla and Nextcloud both offer features for managing contacts and calendars, but they cater to different needs:

                • Hubzilla focuses on social networking and doesn’t have built-in calendar or contact management features. However, some Hubzilla servers offer integrations with third-party calendar and contact apps.
                • Nextcloud excels at personal cloud storage, including contacts and calendars. You can store your contact information and calendar events on your own server, giving you complete control and privacy over your data.

                Is this correct?

                  NO

                  Hubzilla has a build calendar and has a contact management, also a personal cloud storage and gives you complete control and privacy over your data.

                  Maybe we can put is that way:
                  Hubzilal is focused on social networking and has also a could storage

                  Nextcloud is focus on providing a cloud storage and has also social networking features…

                  you get it ? the focus ist different :-)

                  Well, for various reasons I stopped hosting my own Hubzilla instance some years ago, but back then it absolutely had CalDAV and CardDAV. The problem was mainly that this wasn’t well exposed in the Hubzilla web-interface, other than an event calendar. But with Thunderbird and DAVx5 etc. you could connect to it and manage it just fine. The WebDAV file storage part worked fine in the web-interface as well.

                  Edit: these parts are not federated though AFAIK (contrary to Nextcloud which does have some kind of file-sharing federation).

                    @poVoq

                    Sure - Hubzilla has file-sharing functionality… but the files stay on your could…

                    The magic and real power of Hubzilla however is that you can share permission and access rights across Fedi Servers…

                    so even the files stay on your server you can “federate” access all over the Fediverse … you can´t do that with Nextcloud

                    With Nextcloud you can share with an Email account holder - with Hubzilla you can share with an Fedi account holder
