Flipboard Expands Publisher Federation with International Partners

We're excited to announce that Flipboard is beginning to federate publisher accounts in France, Italy, and Spain, while also expanding federation in Brazil, Germany, and the U.K. - making quality journalism even more accessible across the fediverse.

People using Mastodon, Threads, and other platforms on the open social web (also known as the fediverse) can now discover and follow stories from an outstanding lineup of publishers in these regions. This latest expansion adds 124 new publishers to the federation test we launched over a year ago, bringing the total number of federated Flipboard accounts to 1,241.

This new wave of Flipboard federation delivers diverse stories on topics like world news, science breakthroughs, sports events, and lifestyle trends. Similar to our U.S. publisher roll-out, we are testing federation with a limited number of partners in each region and will continue to expand over the coming months.

Here's a look at a few of the newly federated publisher accounts:
