@Flipboard and Surf.Social are excited to host the first-ever Fediverse House, March 9 & 10, 2025.

Join us while the SXSW conference is going on to learn about the world of decentralized social and why it promises a better way for consumers, creators, brands, and even democracy itself.

Our programming lineup is stacked (and still evolving), but it’s looking like the place to be for anyone interested in the future of the internet.

Will you be in or near Austin, TX, on March 9 and 10? We're gathering people passionate about decentralized social media for two days of panels, networking, learning, and fun during the first-ever Fediverse House.

We’ll be sharing official details soon, but for now we wanted to do a special roll call 📯 for creators, publishers, podcasters, community builders, and developers.

Let us know if you’ll be there as we are currently finessing our programming lineup and looking for expert voices to showcase and partner with. Thank you! 🤙

We've got your back on this one. You can follow all your favorite people on Pixelfed on Surf (and add them to custom feeds with other people, hashtags, RSS, etc).

Man, yesterday was a doozy. We can’t agree with every platform’s decisions, but we can vote with our feet.

Surf wants to free our social connections from being locked up in separate self-serving networks. It’s a no-nonsense browser for the open social web that lets you easily create and surf custom feeds that organize people, videos, articles and podcasts around the things you care about.

Happy New Year, everyone! Just for fun — and to inject a bit of sunshine 🌞 in your day — here’s a peek at the aesthetic that inspired the Surf brand. We’re going for retro-modern vibes, featuring 70s surf nostalgia and a dose of @Flipboard's Bauhaus DNA.

Here’s a tip for our Dawn Patrol #surfers: Add an interesting title and description. Not only does it help people understand what’s in your feed and why they should care, but also we’re looking for rad feeds to feature and this is a prerequisite. Thanks! 😎

@shac @TechDesk Hi, we've had a LOT of feedback about this and are working on stripping out some of the bells and whistles, but in the meantime, here's a simple waitlist form to complete! Thanks for your patience.

Why are we calling it the Dawn Patrol Beta? ☀️

In surfing, dawn patrol is the practice of hitting the waves early to take advantage of good conditions and fewer crowds. It’s also an energizing way to start the day.

Join us in the vast ocean: https://about.surf.social/ (Warning you, these puns will never get old.)

Every great ride starts with a paddle. 🏄♂️ Today, we’re swimming away from the tyranny of the For You feed to a place with better choice and control.
