I don't get this does not get more votes. This is THE facebook killer, done right :

  • Open source
  • Decentralized
  • Beautiful
  • Ergonomic
  • No ads

This is just great ....

Looked so promising! Allegedly has groups! Then you try to sign up for this thing.

First, they want you to sign up for XMPP, which I had to look up what that is. The old JABBER client, which ok, no one back in the day knew what that was either.

So I sign up with an email on their XMPP link. Then I try to log into movim.eu. Nope! You can’t. You have to try to log into your XMPP account. They send a message there.

There is no way of getting into your XMPP account.

So, this is another “trip to nowhere”!!! What a disappointment!

Its the best decentralized social network that I found. I can finally create and find groups

What is Movim?

Our philosophy is that your data are yours and you must always be in control. Movim achieves this through a complete decentralisation of users' data and accounts.

Register wherever you want! Movim keeps you in touch with your family and friends, even if they are on a different server. Your data follow you on any Movim node you use.

Why not gear up? You can easily install a Movim node on your own server, and be free!

Movim relies on the enterprise-class XMPP protocol. With Movim, you will never be locked in by a single vendor, your Gmail® and Facebook® contacts will be available, and even WLM®, Yahoo® and many others.

The Movim platform integrates everything you need to connect to your favourite XMPP server and communicate freely.

We are proud to use JAXL, the powerful XMPP library for PHP.

Movim employs only Free and open-source software respectful of the Internet's fundamental philosophy (neutrality, privacy and freedom).

Movim is Free Software and licensed under AGPLv3 with the exception of a component under LGPLv3 and the GNU FDL for the documentation.

Movim and its community are dedicated to promote the ethics and ideals of the Free Software.
