Flipboard just launched Surf, which is sort of like an RSS feed for the open social web

The news app Flipboard just launched something called Surf. This app allows users to browse the open social web, which includes services like Mastodon and Bluesky.

The app’s home page includes a wide swath of curated feeds to follow that are organized into sections like Featured, Trending, Communities and Expert Voices. Feeds are configurable in a number of ways, which lets users include or exclude stuff like replies, reposts or mature content. The biggest news stories this morning: Elon Musk is opening a preschool, Unofficial mod transforms the Playdate into a charming robot pet, Seagate teases its first HAMR-based hard drive.
