Welcome

Let's talk about the fediverse.

The fediverse is a collection of community-owned, ad-free, decentralised, and privacy-centric social networks.

Each fediverse instance is managed by a human admin. You can find fediverse instances dedicated to art, music, technology, culture, or politics.

Join the growing community and experience the web as it was meant to be.

A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of “federation” and “universe”.

Today we are beginning to open Flipboard to the Fediverse, a rapidly emerging part of the Web which includes social services like Mastodon, Threads, Pixelfed, Firefish and PeerTube all built on a revolutionary open protocol called ActivityPub.

When and how is this going to happen? The process of opening Flipboard to the Fediverse is called “federation” and it will happen in three distinct phases between now and April:

Phase 1 (Today): We are federating 27 publishers and creators so that we can test and gather feedback
Phase 2 (January): We will enable anyone in the Fediverse to follow and engage with any public curator on Flipboard
Phase 3 (April): We will enable anyone on Flipboard to follow and engage with any public account in the Fediverse
