Friendica Installation

We've tried very hard to ensure that Friendica will run on commodity hosting

platforms - such as those used to host Wordpress blogs and Drupal websites.
|
||||
But be aware that Friendica is more than a simple web application. It is a
|

complex communications system which more closely resembles an email server
|
||||
than a web server. For reliability and performance, messages are delivered in
|
||||
the background and are queued for later delivery when sites are down. This
|
||||
kind of functionality requires a bit more of the host system than the typical
