Hello fediverse!
-
@_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:
-
@Mike McCue Android. I see Fediverse sub, but I can't rolling down for hours to find anybody. There are millions accounts on Fediverse(tried to roll down for several minutes, no POTUS, for example). And when I use search, Fediverse sub disappear and in result I can't see anything from Fediverse. ️
-
@martin ok. not sure what's happening. Adding @FlipboardCS to help.

@mike @Flipboard I checked it with my Mastodon Account and my WordPress blog and it seems to show my Mastodon posts on Flipboard, but I can't see my Flipboard Account in the followers list of Mastodon or my Blog?
Does flipboard send a real "Follow" request or does it simply subscribe to the outbox in a similar way as with RSS?
I would love to debug it a bit, so that it plays nicely with the WordPress plugin, but I can't see any requests to the inbox at all.

@sneexy @mike nah they are using threads fediverse icon instead the classical one.
not gona deny its an icon that aesthetically works better with current apps and stuff like that (circles better than straight lines. being straight is bad joke here).
Nothing important worth blocking I think. They just enabled federation for everyone

@[email protected] @[email protected] we mention the ceo for everything on Thy Freddy Verses !!! :mlm_fedi: Nobody is spared.
also i just don't remember what flipboard did but i guess we'll keep it federating. it seems like they provide news sources directly. will probably suspend the fox account though -

@mike Nice! But it would be great to use Flipboard as the proper Mastodon client (with like/reply/post/retoot access) for the connected Fedi account.

@sindarina @ben Hah. The luck of the screen shot. There are a ton of mastodon users featured too.

@pundir You can actually do this by connecting your fedi account to Flipboard. Go to the Following tab (the tab with 4 squares) and select the accounts tab. Then sign in to mastodon and you'll see your home timeline, mentions, lists, etc. and can fully reply, like, etc.

@[email protected] @[email protected] well while you are here i wanna ask the question as the original post that started this thread, why the meta fedi icon instead of the original? was there a reason for using that one instead? i think it'd be better to use the original icon to prevent any future confusion or anything like "the thing facebook made"

@mike I tried the same yesterday. The timeline loaded but I couldn't post and felt like it worked in read-only mode. But thank you for confirming that flipboard can be used as a Mastodon client. I'll try again today.
