Flipboard has begun testing ActivityPub federation of user accounts - eviltoast

Mike McCue - Hello Fediverse. I’m posting this tonight from my federated Flipboard profile! We’re now testing our #ActivityPub integration starting with my account. You can follow me here to see all the stories I’m curating about things like startups, photography and of course, the #Fediverse. Curious to hear your thoughts on how this is working. We’ll incorporate your feedback as we make more progress on federating Flipboard. Stay tuned for lots more soon.

    Hm, so what does this mean for federating his “posts” to Lemmy/my instance?

      It means as far as I’m aware, that ain’t happening. You’d have to follow from something that supports following users (Mastodon is the obvious, but does Kbin do this? 🤷‍♀️)
