I've been using @Flipboard's new @surf app—it provides a fresh look for discovering content across the #Fediverse. Here are my thoughts on why it's useful for those looking to break free from Big Tech + how it better connects decentralized communities.

So, @Flipboard did launch a tool to make discovery easier, eh? And it's a fediverse browser?

Exactly what @mike told me. Check out this article if you want to know more about the company's decentralized push: https://thelettertwo.com/2024/12/15/behind-flipboard-fediverse-embrace-mike-mccue-interview/

@Flipboard is known for being a news aggregation and content curation app, but what's behind its embrace of the decentralized web? As someone who's long followed the company, I was curious about this play, so I sat down with CEO @mmccue to find out. 🧵👇

Amazon Web Services is making it easier for developers to integrate their AI apps with specialized models with the launch of its Amazon Bedrock marketplace. There are more than 100 models available right now.

@mike @dot_social inquiring minds want to know who Luigi is??

Had some time to think about this more. Today's @Flipboard news is substantial and I can't wait for this ActivityPub integration to become widely available, especially for publishers and content creators.

I should write more about this in a blog post, but wanted to plop down some quick thoughts.

As @mike pointed out, it's a break down of the walled garden of content. This hopefully creates greater exposure/promotion of Magazines, and maybe even Storyboards.

@Gargron feels like you should make a family of sharks...doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo 😂

@mike @haui @teksquisite @Flipboard wait, something was ironic?

@haui @mike @teksquisite @Flipboard I'm confused...maybe it's because I haven't had any caffeine today...

@haui @mike @teksquisite @Flipboard so how is the irony flowing?

Congratulations to @mike on launching "Dot Social," a @Flipboard podcast exploring the future of social media, the evolution of the internet and the opening of new standards such as ActivityPub.
