   Giving @Flipboard another spin, since it’s a big supporter of the #Fediverse. It’s also a survivor…I remember covering it on ReadWriteWeb when it launched (or maybe that was a post by @jon?). Either way, here’s my #InternetHistory mag, if you’re a Flipboard user: https://flipboard.com/@ricmac/internet-history-e041t55qz

     @jon @miaq @ricmac @Flipboard it's a matter of when, not if!

     @jon @ricmac @Flipboard 🤩 worlds crashing and colliding into one gorgeous nebula (lol stick with me on that analogy).

     Jon was my first manager at Burning Man (when will they join the fediverse?!)

     @miaq @ricmac @Flipboard Yeah @evan was recently asking this question. I was unable to pick my head up off of my desk for days afterwards.

     @ricmac @Flipboard I don’t think I was on the Flipboard beat right when it came out, but I definitely picked it up and covered it as long as I was there. Anything in the “reading on iPads” category has always been bait for me. And then I ended up working with @miaq later, and now here we all are. Flipboard is intertwined with my destiny.

     @jon @miaq OK, I just registered camp.social. I guess we can do some kind of wildcarding with center.camp.social or deathguild.camp.social ? LFG

     @evan @miaq @ricmac @Flipboard Well, that is definitely true from the point of view I always assumed when liaising with participants who wanted software things to happen, which was, “Your best bet is to make it, go viral for it, get everyone using it, and then we’ll have to go along with it.”

     @jon @miaq warning: I have not been to the desert in almost a decade, no idea if those are even still theme camps.

     @jon @miaq Anyway, here's the plan:

     1. Set up some kind of multihoming Mastodon service.
     2. When the themecamp listing comes out, make one instance for each theme camp, like <campname>.camp.social. Hopefully this is cheap!
     3. Invite the listed contact to their instance (do the listings still have a contact email?).
     4. <fediverse intensifies>

     @jon @miaq if we can get 5% it'd still be cool

     @evan @miaq See the problem is, I think they’re all using like Asana and whatnot. Burning Man requires pivot tables now

     @evan @jon Should I reach out to our friends there? Float the idea? I'm sure they're all too busy, but camp.social is a very cool idea -- I bet some early adopters would bite!

     @evan @miaq I assure you Center Camp is still there. Death Guild probably is, too, but it’s probably run by Millennials now
