@Flipboard is joining the Fediverse.
Not only are they starting their own Mastodon server, not only are they adding Mastodon functionality...
The service itself is integrating with ActivityPub.
Engadget speculates that Flipboard, itself, could be centred around ActivityPub.

1. According to Flipboard CEO Mike McCue, the two updates are the first “very initial steps” of a broader plan to embrace the decentralized social networking protocols that have been popularized by Mastodon over the last year. Instead of relying on the “proprietary social graphs” of services like Twitter and Facebook — both of which have become increasingly hostile to outside developers — Flipboard could instead be centered around ActivityPub, the open source protocol that powers Mastodon and the rest of the decentralized services that make up the “Fediverse.”
