Hello fediverse!
-
I just installed the update, it seems to work very well (finally the Pixelfed aggregation also works).
It's a very interesting and promising goal, congratulations. @flipboard is always ahead of everyone! And keep it up!
-
@docpop Exactly. Starting today every Flipboard user can follow every fediverse user and see their posts in relevant feeds.
Also starting today, any Flipboard user can request to federate their Flipboard account which will turn them into a full blown Fediverse user who can be discovered and followed from Mastodon and other fediverse apps.

@mike Congratulations, Mike! We're already spreading the word.

@hello Thank you! And one really important point to highlight:
This is actually a full blown ActivityPub follow. So what that means is that if your Flipboard account is federated it is a full two way connection and you can reply to posts.
Also, starting today, any Flipboard user can request to federate their account to gain this two way capability. We are gradually federating more and more accounts as we scale our backend.
-
@mike Each person/account shows up as a separate magazine, right? Is there an easy way to combine them?
-
@dan613 Great Q. We definitely need a way to do this. I believe the fediverse should have a notion of multiple feeds for a single account. This would also help enable things like publicly shareable lists. Open to ideas for how to make this happen!
-
@mike Nice!
-
-
@Nudelfreak Dies bedeutet, dass Flipboard-Benutzer jetzt Beiträge von Fediverse-Benutzern sehen können, die von Mastodon, Threads, Pixelfed usw. posten.

@mike good work and thanks. I’ll tell everyone! #fediverse

@mike Fantastic! Congratulations! 🥳

Tried connect from app myself, potus, @xChaos, @Kosmo Klub, even Kara Swisher. It's not working. Search for Social is full of YT users and channels, nothing from Fediverse.

@martin Will look into this. Be sure you're using the very latest version of Flipboard. CCing @FlipboardCS to help.

@Mike McCue Flipboard 4.3.27, 5463

@_ohcoco_ @dan613 Turns out you can do this today. You can log into your Mastodon account directly and then you can access your lists as a flipboard magazine. To do this, go to the following tab (the 4 squares icon), select the accounts sub tab, select mastodon, log into your account, then tap on your account from this tab and you'll see your lists. Screen shots here:

@martin iOS or Android? the correct iOS version is 4.3.32(1939)
-
@martin you should see a Fediverse sub tab when you go to search. Like this:
