Hello Fediverse!
@Flipboard is currently a walled garden.
It's a beautiful, highly curated walled garden filled with content from the worlds best publishers and creators curated by Flipboard's editorial team as well as our community of magazine makers.
But it's still a walled garden. Today that begins to change.
We've moved four of our most popular #curation desks into the Fediverse for you to enjoy.
@NewsDesk
@TechDesk
@CultureDesk
@ScienceDesk

@mike Haven't heard of Flipboard since ...2015?, when it came pre-installed on Samsung devices and first thing user asked is to how to remove it.
Now RSS is dead, Twitter is filled with hatred, and Flipboard app itself didn't work (at least in Russia). But Fediverse is able to bring content creators to more people, with more privacy and less restrictions
@saiv46 are you based in Russia? They blocked us. So did China and North Korea. That said we still curate Russian content. Have you tried accessing Flipboard through a VPN?
