16. _Show Community Page_: This will create a new tab that displays recent public posts by members of your website and comments to public posts on your website from remote users. This is good for giving new members instantly accessible content (though they themselves won't be able to comment on anything until they have the respective thread initiators as contacts), but it costs in bandwidth and CPU as the page gets indexed by search engines.
17. _Enable Ostatus support_: This allows your members to connect to Ostatus members using other systems (StatusNet, identi.ca etc.). All Ostatus posts are public, and so this option can be a privacy hazard. If you have a public server, you probably need to leave this on - we do tend to get a lot of users with Ostatus contacts. If you're a community server, or are particularly privacy-conscious, you may wish to turn it off.

18. _Enable Diaspora support_: This allows your users to connect to Diaspora members. This comes with privacy concerns - posts do not get deleted or edited on the Diaspora network. It can also prove a nightmare with support requests. Users often cannot connect to the larger Diaspora pods due to problems at Diaspora's end... and then blame you. However, quite a number of new Friendica users come from the Diaspora network and want a way of keeping in touch with their Diaspora contacts. You should probably enable Diaspora support on a public server. On a community server, you may not need it.
