Today was a huge milestone in our quest to federate #Flipboard and tear down the walls around our own walled garden.

First, we launched a new version of Flipboard for iOS and Android which brings the promise of two way federation to life. Now when a federated Flipboard user curates, people in the fediverse can reply, favorite, boost or follow those Flipboard users who will in turn see that activity in their usual notifications tab. Even better, Flipboard users can directly reply to people in the fediverse -- and very soon they will also be able to follow each other.

Second, we federated some of our best curators today who are actively curating more than 10,000 magazines about everything from climate change to kale smoothie recipes. I'm grateful to our many curators and the service they provide to so many others who want to find the best content about a shared interest. I know our curators are excited to have millions more people who could potentially benefit from their curation. I also know that people in the fediverse will give a warm welcome to these curators. Especially now that everyone can hear and talk to each other over what was once two totally separate networks but now increasingly are in one and the same #fediverse.

#Parents of Mastodon, could you recommend a game, that is not Minecraft, or Roblox that is multiplayer that I can play with my 4 year old and 6 year old?

Mainly looking for a game for my 4 year old. He likes Minecraft, but stupidly it triggers my motion sickness. I struggle to play for longer than 15 minutes. I have to really force myself to stick around for longer than that.

I also find it incredibly boring. 😓

Facebook “gave Netflix and Spotify the ability to read Facebook users’ private messages.”

But, yes, please, do federate with them mastodon.social. Because senpai noticed you.

@threemaapp ihr macht es echt unnötig schwierig eure ToS und PP zu finden. Die für die App ist auf eurer Website gar nicht zu finden (abgesehen von https://shop.threema.ch/en/terms) und der Link im Google Play Store sieht anders aus als in der App.
Die Nutzervereinbarungen sind noch nerviger.
Die Endnutzer-Lizenzvereinabarung hab ich auserhalb der App gar nicht gefunden.
Wäre cool wenn ihr dabei weiterhelfen könnt!

My plan for Loops was to use your Pixelfed account for auth, and thats all good and all but when it comes to federation, I think this warrants a separate followers collection.

I'm considering either creating a new outbox like collection for Loops that are delivered to all followers, or a separate account with its own outbox and follower collections.

What are your thoughts?

Okay #Fediverse, let’s see your docks! Here’s mine.

Please BOOST this so we can get maximum spread across the Fediverse and see everyone’s docks.

He’s here! The prototype, anyway. He’s big, squishy, and friend-shaped. We’ll try to make him as affordable as possible. You’ll have to wait a couple more months to get one, but we might open pre-orders relatively soon.

I fixed up the German translation for Allstar.gg so they sent me a goodie box. Thank you very much, I really enjoy your work!

@protonvpn come on these two options have no cost on your side, taking them out of the free plan is really annoying. I want to use KDE connect, to use my phone as a remote input for my pc and browse with a different IP at the same time.

Didn't you recently argue that, if the cost for providing a feature goes down the price for the feature should come down too? This is literally the opposite. (https://proton.me/blog/proton-pass-price-change)

In case you were curious what a #SpamWave looks like in our metrics.

I installed #Orbot by @torproject roughly two weeks ago on my phone to help people circumvent #censorship. In that short time I already helped almost 400 people reach the #internet. You can learn how it works and how to help (it's a click of a button) here: https://snowflake.torproject.org/

Frage an euch - gibt es eine Software wie https://mail.tm die ich selber hosten kann mit eigener Domain?

We added pronouns support in #Fedilab.
It will be displayed for three different purposes.

1 - In timelines next to the display name
2 - When replying to an account (above the first reply)
3 - When mentioning accounts with the auto-complete feature.

It works for accounts that use a field named "pronouns".
We might expand to other words or translations.

Screenshot showing the compose feature where an indication about pronouns is displayed (He/Him)
Screenshot showing the auto-complete results after writing "@" char with some letters. Some accounts are displayed and some of them have pronouns next to their user name.
