Social network service based on XMPP

Movim (My Open Virtual Identity Manager) is a distributed social network built on top of XMPP. It can be accessed using existing XMPP clients and Jabber accounts. Movim is a distributed social networking platform. It builds an abstraction layer for communication and data management while leveraging the strength of the underlying XMPP protocol.

XMPP is a widely used open standards communication platform. Using XMPP allows the service to interface with existing XMPP clients like Conversations, Pidgin, Xabber and Jappix. Users can directly login to Movim using their existing Jabber account.

Movim addresses the privacy concerns related to centralized social networks by allowing users set up their own server (or "pod") to host content; pods can then interact to share status updates, photographs, and other social data. Users can export their data to other pods or offline allowing for greater flexibility.

It allows its users to host their data with a traditional web host, a cloud-based host, an ISP, or a friend. The framework, which is being built on PHP, is a free software and can be experimented with by external developers.

Movim supports OMEMO, group chats (public and private, with or without password) with reactions, stickers and GIFs, it supports also screen-sharing, VOIP (1 to 1) and microblogging.
