Sad to see this from Mike McCue, the CEO and co-founder of @flipboard -- It shows the danger of trusting #Twitter and #TwitterAPI for your organization or business. The #MastodonAPI is free, open, and cannot be taken away by anyone. #Flipboard

This morning Twitter started throttling links to our platform.

“Instagram makes people depressed & #Twitter makes people angry... Which is better?” For Tapbots, it’s clearly #Mastodon, where it can once again build its product its way — and remind Elon Musk: you have no power here." theverge.com/23653556/tweet…

Wow. Calling jay a competitor to Twitter is clutching at straws. That is a terribly executed mess of an app. I can think of it as the 10 print of a hand stenciled copy machine of something that already exists and is very good. Maybe Peggy Miles should check out Flipboard 😂

Today David Pierce posted an excellent write up about #ActivityPub and all the surrounding innovation happening in the #Fediverse right now. theverge.com/2023/4/20/2368…

What a disaster this whole thing has become. theverge.com/2023/4/20/2369…

You asked for it, and it’s coming. Quote posts, search, and groups are on their way and a new onboarding experience is launching today. Read more here: blog.joinmastodon.org/2023/05/a-new-…

Appalling but not surprising. Another reason to switch to either NOT THE SOCIAL NETWORK or bluesky on the social web where moderation is taken seriously and innovation is happening. You can find me there at: flipboard.social/@mike Mike McCue.bsky.social faineg.substack.com/p/welcome-to-t…

Apparently Twitter no longer renders shared links to @substack articles. So here's a screen shot and a link to the article I was referring to. faineg.substack.com/p/welcome-to-t…

Very cool — I love the social magazine concept. Thanks for this update, Team! Flipboard Mia Q // Mastodon: @[email protected] Mike McCue about.flipboard.com/inside-flipboa…

By the way, I'm collecting photography stories in my Andy Adams Reads magazine. If you're on Flipboard and you dig pictures, please check it out: flipboard.com/@flakphoto/fla…

Today we announced the addition of PixelFed and Bluesky to our social web integrations on Flipboard. Now you can see posts from Mastodon, PixelFed, Bluesky and, of course, Flipboard all in the same user experience.

Check out our new AI powered Flipboard Tech feed for Bluesky and let me know what you think. It ingests the Bluesky firehose and then selects posts relevant to tech using a longformer model we train monthly with ~10M documents. bsky.app/profile/did:pl… about.flipboard.com/inside-flipboa…

16 years ago, I created @music and have been running it ever since. Just now, Twitter / X just ripped it away. Super pissed

the level of disinformation on israel-hamas war being algorithmically promoted on twitter is unlike anything i’ve ever been exposed to in my career as a political scientist.

“This is the hardest time I’ve ever had covering a crisis on here. Credible links are now photos. On the ground news outlets struggle to reach audiences without an expensive blue check mark. Xenophobic goons are boosted by the platform’s CEO." wired.com/story/x-israel…

At an important time like this, having links just post as pictures makes twitter unusable -- at a practical, fundamental level -- as a place to share checkable information.
