I think it's telling that flipboard's received a fairly welcoming reaction from the larger fediverse, while threads had huge backlash. Meta and their practices were always the problem.

Tumblr's plans, too, are met quite warmly, just as federation should be. Corporate players are very unlikely to destroy Fedi due to its distributed nature, and are generally going to improve reach and strengthen the trend of federated social networks. It's just that people and admins simply don't want to have anything to do with the absolute shit show that is Meta.

FIlpboard started as a magazine view for your social media, and if this goes right, this could be a return to form for Flipboard. I love their app and user experience but its been rudderless for the past few years as a news federator.
