A great new toolset just opened up from @Flipboard enabling users to browser, sort, sift through literally thousands of federated "magazines," brand or org accounts, and fipboard TV accounts - all federating out and ready to copy and paste into your Fediverse app to follow.

Searchable and sortable in every way you can imagine (by most followers, newest, by language, etc)

Check it out.

This is nice!

Hi @Flipboard! If I may share a feature request, would you maybe consider supporting a "server" URL parameter that would allow opening the links on the specified domain?

Let me illustrate how this would work.

If you visit most-followed-mastodon-account… and you have an account on indieweb.social, all the links will open on your server, so you don't have to copy the usernames and search for them.

You could add an input field so people can put in their own server, but even without that, this would make it possible to share a link with people on specific servers, or whole communities.

@stefan I hope @mike sees this thread. He has been very receptive and responsive from the community in making the Flipboard federation experience better as time goes on.

@stefan It's been a while since I have posted this, but on days when my motor control is off due to my Parkinson's, or in times when my meds are "turned off" in-between doses, being able to "Flip" through my Mastodon timeline has been a godsend and has granted me more #accessibility to the #Fediverse as well as all the content through the #Flipboard app. Flipping through my timeline allows me to stay connected socially. It is really a great #a11y application.

@paul @stefan I'm so happy to hear that Paul. And thank you for sharing your experience. It's one of the best things I've heard from someone using flipboard since we started the company 16 years ago. Super motivating to the team and i.
