Great idea the article!

Maybe you can add also this information:

Hubzilla can also be installed using Softaculous Script Installer if your web space provider offers this tool in your web space admin panel. If you do so, you don't need any shell commands. But please note, that the automatic Hubzilla installation done by the Softaculous Script Installer has some unfortunate gaps. For example no Hubzilla addons will be installed which also means that you can't connect to users from Diaspora or other federated networks. And you won't be able to update your installation since Softaculous has its own update mechanism which isn't supported by Hubzilla so far, and typical shell update isn't possible because the Softaculous Hubzilla installation doesn't include the git repository.

In my first Hubzilla installation which was done by the Softaculous Script Installer,

in my opinion installing via softaculous is decidedly inferior to installation via Git or docker, which i've seen mentioned somewhere too. the docker image includes the Git repository and allows full customization and upgrade. learning a few shell commands is not that much of a hurdle, and for anybody who thinks it is, it is probably better to join a hub that's managed by somebody with better technical understanding.

hubzilla is still in rapid development, and to be able to fix small mistakes via shell commands or editing files here or there is pretty much a requirement -- again, IMO.
