@mariellequinton Thanks for flagging — we just added the tag. For some reason we had added Ireland as a tag rather than Canada (which is strangely appropriate, given where we are and where we came from!).

@Flipboard @FlipboardBR @FlipboardDE But do they see what we say?

@gimulnautti Hi Toni! We've asked our colleagues and in a situation where you are a non-Flipboard user commenting on a federated Flipboard publisher's post via a fediverse platform like Mastodon, they will be able to see and comment on your posts if they are logged in on the Flipboard app.

That said, a lot of our publishers are doing their curation via Flipboard on the web, where they won't receive notifications about comments. In addition, many of them do the bulk of their curation (though not all) by RSS. So the real-world answer is it's technically possible! Hope that answers your question!

@Flipboard Good to hear that! You seem to be one of the few private companies in the #fediverse space doing federation ”right”.

TBH I couldn’t care less about these account duplication schemes.

Good work! 🫶

@gimulnautti We're trying our best — collaborating with lots of clever people and listening to all the smart folks from the fediverse before and after we do things!
