About
GNU social is a free social networking platform. It helps people in a community, company or group to exchange short status updates, do polls, announce events, or other social activities (and you can add more!). Users can choose which people to "follow" and receive only their friends' or colleagues' status messages. It provides a similar service to proprietary social network sites, but is much more awesome.
With a little work, status messages can be sent to mobile phones, instant messenger programs (using XMPP), and specially-designed desktop clients that support the Twitter API.
GNU social supports open standards (such as OStatus https://www.w3.org/community/ostatus/ and ActivityPub https://activitypub.rocks/) that lets users in different networks follow each other. It enables a distributed social network spread all across the Web.
GNU social was originally developed as "StatusNet" by StatusNet, Inc. with Evan Prodromou as lead developer.
It is shared with you in hope that you too make an service available to your users. To learn more, please see the Open Software Service Definition 1.1: http://www.opendefinition.org/ossd

Troubleshooting
The primary output for GNU social is syslog, unless you configured a separate logfile. This is probably the first place to look if you're getting weird behaviour from GNU social.
Do not forget to run /scripts/upgrade.php if you're upgrading to this release.
