Thanks for the answer. This might be a dumb question but what does that mean exactly? Is Flipboard approaching the different media outlets and offering to share their content on Flipboard’s instance? If so, what do the media outlets get out of using flipboard versus their own instance or a more generic instance like mastadon.social?

Flipboard it’s own media platform that is embracing AP.
