* Sharing things
If you have the GNU Social microblogging system installed then it's also possible to share things or services between groups or with particular users. This can be useful for sharing items within a family, club or in a local sharing economy. Sharing things freely, without money, reveals the social basis at the root of all economics which money normally conceals or obscures.
Click on "/share/" or "/my catalog/" and this will switch to a screen which allows you to enter details for things to be shared or wanted.

Both Hubzilla and GNU Social try to obtain certificates automatically at the time of installation via Let's Encrypt.
