Today, we’re announcing the second phase of our Flipboard federation test: Flipboard Magazines are coming to the Fediverse! Now, you’ll be able to follow content from 1,000 Magazines, organized by themes and topics — so you can get FanSided’s Los Angeles Lakers stories, but nothing about the Yankees. Take a look at @mike’s post, which explains all you need to know about this.

@Flipboard @mike

Have you dropped the far right publications yet?

@kevinrns @Flipboard We have publications from across the political spectrum but we do not allow hate speech, misinformation, nazis, racism, transphobia., etc.

@mike @kevinrns @Flipboard those are contradictory statements. You either have far right pubs, or you don’t have misinformation, racism, transphobia, & neo-nazis.

@DEDGirl @kevinrns What far right pubs are you referring to then? We don't allow pubs that traffic in these things i.e. Alex Jones, Breitbart, etc.

@mike @DEDGirl @kevinrns you tell me. I’ve never heard of you before. However, your statements are opposing. 🤷‍♀️

@DEDGirl @kevinrns Let be more clear then. We do not allow any publication which posts hateful content, violent rhetoric, etc. And to my knowledge no publication like that exists on Flipboard. We've done a far better job at moderating this type of content than most of the other platforms have ever done but as we all know there can always be people who get through. If you ever do see something like that please let me know right away so we can deal with it.

@mike @DEDGirl

This appears to be true on the flipboard website. A newsstand avoiding the worst.
