Hey @mike@flipboard.social, are Flipboard collections (or are they magazines? I forget the term!) federating out as as:Group? I’m wondering whether it would be possible for NodeBB to load them in as categories, and be able to browse them natively…
I’m just not able to easily find them in the Flipboard UI right now, but I’m relatively new at using the app :)
@julian
So when the initial post come out doe you expect the group to be in the “cc”?
Normally what happens is the magazine “boosts” the post so you will get the post and then the boost of the post from the group actor. I’d be glad to make a change if If i knew what that was.
In mastodon, the magazine will always be empty unless some explicitly follows the magazine.
@jsonculverhouse@flipboard.social yes, that’s right.
If a Flipboard post is organized within magazines, then including the magazine in the cc will allow recipient software to correctly slot the post with the magazine.
So not only would it fix the issue for NodeBB, it’d also fix it for Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, etc.
