Article version of my "Demo post from Hubzilla"
Hubzilla refers to this as a "summary" and not a "CW"

@Fediverse News This is another post to demonstrate what is possible in #Hubzilla posts and how much of it, if anything, arrives on instances of other projects. It also demos the functionality of Hubzilla's NSFW app; if you've installed it, it should give you a content warning.
For those who don't know yet: Hubzilla is a fork of #Friendica, created by Friendica's own creator, Mike Macgirvin. Friendica, then named Mistpark, was launched in summer 2010, six years before #Mastodon, already as a free-as-in-free-license, open-source, decentralised, distributed, federated alternative to Facebook. Basically what Mastodon was to Twitter six years later.
Friendica was geared right away towards macroblogging with forum functionality on top. Its capabilities were chosen accordingly, including no character limit, image embedding (with included manageable file space to upload images to) and text formatting through BBcode.
Hubzilla, then named Red, was forked off Friendica in 2012, four years before Mastodon. It was converted to a whole new protocol which Mike had conceived in 2011 with capabilities previously unseen on the #FederatedSocialWeb, now known as the #Fediverse, especially #NomadicIdentity. Otherwise, most of the features were kept the same, and even many more came on top. Hubzilla turned from a distributed social network into a nomadic social content management system.
While neither Friendica nor Hubzilla uses #ActivityPub internally as their protocol, both have built-in "translators" that enable them to connect to Mastodon and other ActivityPub-based Fediverse projects.
The main intention behind this post is to show Mastodon users in particular what Fediverse projects that aren't Mastodon are capable of. It shall also demonstrate how Mastodon cripples posts coming in from non-Mastodon instances.
Again, when Mastodon was launched, Hubzilla already had these features, and it had had them for four years already.
The Mastodon users amongst you will only see the crippled form of this post and probably wonder what I'm talking about. If you're using Mastodon through a Web browser, click on the date/the age of the post, and it'll take you to the original (as opposed to the mangled Mastodon output). For your convenience, especially that of those of you on mobile apps, I will also stitch together screenshots of this post and additionally publish it as an article.
Five images should be embedded in this post. All are stored on the file space built into my Hubzilla channel.
