Flipboard<p>In the fediverse, it’s mostly on you to find worthy people to fill up your feeds. Luckily, there are curators who’ve already done that legwork for you. Use these resources as shortcuts to make your fediverse experience as smart and relevant as can be. Share in the comments any tips and ideas you use to discover cool profiles and posts.

Flipboard<p>Think of a publisher, and there's a good chance they'll have a Flipboard account. Now, we're in the process of federating them. Publishers —&nbsp;like just about everyone we know —&nbsp;have a hard time getting their heads around the fediverse and what it means to federate your Flipboard account, so <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.social/@jejord" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>jejord</span></a></span> has written this blogpost. In it, she explains the fediverse, what Flipboard federation looks like, the value of our Magazine feeds, and why we think all this is important. "The fediverse is potentially the One Ecosystem to Rule Them All, and is estimated to grow to 170M users by the end of 2024," writes Jessica.</p><p><a href="https://about.flipboard.com/business/publisher-federation-flipboard/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">about.flipboard.com/business/p</span><span class="invisible">ublisher-federation-flipboard/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Federation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Federation</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Flipboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Flipboard</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Publishers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Publishers</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Media</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Journalism</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FediCurious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediCurious</span></a></p>
Flipboard<p>In the words of Fatboy Slim, "we've come a long long way together." Here, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.social/@miaq" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>miaq</span></a></span> breaks down Flipboard's federation journey so far. </p><p>"We could [federate Flipboard] with a quick flip of the switch but we’ve chosen to act more intentionally," she writes. "We’re taking measured steps to test, learn, and ensure that everything we’re doing stays true to our values and those of the fediverse. Maintaining quality is top of the list." </p><p><a href="https://about.flipboard.com/inside-flipboard/federation-timeline/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">about.flipboard.com/inside-fli</span><span class="invisible">pboard/federation-timeline/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Federation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Federation</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Flipboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Flipboard</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FediCurious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediCurious</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Publishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Publishing</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Media</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/MastodonMigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastodonMigration</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a></p>

Flipboard<p>What does it mean to federate your Flipboard profile? In the simplest terms, it means that whatever you curate (aka share) on Flipboard will be "syndicated" out to the fediverse with no extra effort. <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.social/@miaq" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>miaq</span></a></span> tests it out and breaks it down.</p><p><a href="https://flipboard.medium.com/what-does-it-mean-to-federate-your-flipboard-profile-cb6f5783957c" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">flipboard.medium.com/what-does</span><span class="invisible">-it-mean-to-federate-your-flipboard-profile-cb6f5783957c</span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Federation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Federation</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Fediverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fediverse</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FediCurious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediCurious</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Curation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Curation</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Flipboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Flipboard</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/SpreadMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpreadMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Creators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Creators</span></a></p>
