Today, we’re announcing that Flipboard is beginning to federate our publisher partner accounts in Brazil and expanding federation in Canada, Germany and the U.K.
Now, people in the fediverse can follow 150 newly federated publisher accounts and 2,000 topically curated Magazines about everything from politics and world news to sports and travel.
@[email protected] Thanks for flagging — we just added the tag. For some reason we had added Ireland as a tag rather than Canada (which is strangely appropriate, given where we are and where we came from!).
@[email protected] Hi Toni! We've asked our colleagues and in a situation where you are a non-Flipboard user commenting on a federated Flipboard publisher's post via a fediverse platform like Mastodon, they will be able to see and comment on your posts if they are logged in on the Flipboard app.
That said, a lot of our publishers are doing their curation via Flipboard on the web, where they won't receive notifications about comments. In addition, many of them do the bulk of their curation (though not all) by RSS. So the real-world answer is it's technically possible! Hope that answers your question!
