Flipboard curators have seen over 100,000 boosts, likes and replies from people across the fediverse since April 11. Given this positive signal from the community, today we're federating another 100 accounts representing more than 2,500 Magazines about everything from climate to culture. Read more here:

Alas, we've not had time to pull together our usual #NewstodonFriday thread this week (sometimes you've just got to prioritize watching a group of seven-year-olds wave paper plates to the "Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy"). Instead, we're going to re-share our list of the brilliant indie publishers with an active presence on Mastodon, all of whom would love your support. The spreadsheet below shows all the Flipboard publisher accounts we've federated, many of which are also small independent publishers that would appreciate your cash and/or clicks.

As part of our mission to bring more high-quality journalism to the fediverse, we’re federating today the profiles of nine U.S. media sites, bringing their content to Mastodon and other platforms. We think this is especially important now as the world faces serious crises like Ukraine, Gaza and climate change — not to mention pivotal elections coming up this year in several countries.

We’re delighted to welcome this next wave of trusted publishers:

The fediverse has no central authority — which brings both challenges and opportunities for how it's governed. For Dot Social, @mike spoke with @kissane and @darius, two of the smartest people working on this, about the impact of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election on fediverse work, the "Xodus," what needs to be done next, and how to fund and sustain better networks for humans.

Local news matters, now more than ever. So a few weeks ago, we asked you for your thoughts on federating local papers in the USA — where you're located, and the specific publications you'd like to see. You responded, with ideas, suggestions, and an education on American geography. Now, we've federated 64 publications. Here's a blogpost with more details, plus a spreadsheet with a list of all the federated profiles, which include everyone from @AlaskaBeacon to @SunSentinel. If you spy a profile you like, search for it in the fediverse and you should see all its Magazines (topical feeds). Follow the profile to see everything in your feed, or just Magazines if you're only interested in, for example, South Florida Sports (@south-florida-sports-SunSentinel) or Texas Barbecue (@texas-bbq-TexasMonthly). If we've missed something or you have a suggestion for us, just let us know in the comments. Follow our @FlipboardMagazines account for regular updates on federated Magazines.

Today, we're beginning to federate a selection of publishers based in Germany and the U.K. We've also introduced @FlipboardDE, a new profile for the Mastodon community in Germany. In the first test, we are partnering with 21 publishers to federate their profiles and Magazines. Follow the profile to see all the stories they are posting on Flipboard, or topically curated Magazines to get coverage on specific areas of interest. Here's a blogpost that explains more.

Im letzten Dezember haben wir damit begonnen, Flipboard für das Fediverse zu öffnen. Heute machen wir einen weiteren wichtigen Schritt in diese Richtung, indem wir unsere Testphase ausweiten: Die ersten Publisher aus Deutschland sind nun für das gesamte Fediverse zugänglich.

Wir haben von einigen aus der Community das Feedback erhalten, die Artikelanzahl sei für einige föderierte Publisher sehr hoch. Daher möchten wir einen Überblick dazu geben:

Die Anzahl der Beiträge bezieht sich auf die Gesamtbeiträge bei Flipboard und damit i.d.R. auf einen Zeitraum von mehreren Jahren.

Folgendes ist aus unserer Sicht die beste Möglichkeit, sich auf dem Laufenden zu halten und dabei spezifischen Content eines bevorzugten Publishers zu bekommen: den Flipboard-Magazinen zu folgen, um kuratierte Artikel zu bestimmten Themen zu erhalten.

Was bedeutet das konkret? Wenn du dich für Wirtschaftsnachrichten oder Klimapolitik interessierst, kannst du den Magazinen eines Publishers ausschließlich zu diesen Themen folgen, oder wenn du alle Inhalte sehen willst, kannst du dem Profil des Publishers folgen – so hast du mehr Möglichkeiten, die Art der Inhalte, die du in deinem Home-Feed siehst, anzupassen.

Das föderierte Profil eines Publishers ist nur eine weitere Möglichkeit, seinen Inhalten zu folgen und mit ihnen zu interagieren.

So folgst du einzelnen Magazinen über Mastodon:

1) Verwende die Suche, um nach den Magazinen eines Publishers zu suchen (Die Liste an bisher föderierten Publisher haben wir in unserem Profil angeheftet).

2) Wähle "Alle ansehen" bei den Suchergebnissen aus.

3) Folge nun den thematischen Magazinen, die dich interessieren. Wir haben hierzu einen Screenshot von ZEIT ONLINE als Beispiel hinzugefügt.

Bluesky founder and CEO @jay.bsky.team says social media is stagnating because "we're in this trap where users are locked in and developers are locked out." She talked to @mike for the Dot Social podcast about building a healthier internet, how Elon impacted Bluesky's trajectory, innovating on social identity, and how different protocols can come together.
