Flipboard is putting emphasis on #surffeeds . So let’s jump on the bandwagon.

If you want to experiment with Surf feeds but aren’t federated, you can still use them as a discovery tool.

Here’s few #Surftips:

• Build your feeds from trusted sources, not just topics
• Try very specific niches (I have food culture) rather than broad subjects
• Use the exclude filters to remove noise and keep feeds focused
• Post directly from Surf into Mastodon or Bluesky

Even without federation, Surf can be a great way to discover interesting articles and ideas to curate or share. Make sure you add your blog to your trusted sources. Posted in our Flipboard User Group

Food shocker for today!
Strawberries aren’t true berries. Bananas are!
A true berry develops from one flower with one ovary and usually has seeds inside.
• Bananas grow from a single flower with one ovary.
• Strawberries don’t, each seed is on the outside and is its own tiny fruit.

We don’t just eat food! We inherit it. Why does one dish define a community? Why do recipes survive wars, migration, and time? This feed unpacks the language of food and identity. #foodculture #foodhistory #foodidentity Food Language and Identity surf.social/feed/surf%2F... #SurfFeeds

Finally got my #surffeeds to serve me #foodhistory related posts. surf.social/feed/surf%2F...

🧶🧶🧶 Interesting brief article about knitting and political resistance - the red hat.

"People who opposed the occupation and the Nazis were known as... the Norwegian Nazi equivalent of libtards. Nazis also frequently accused their opposition of being communists."

After the news about the massive layoffs at the Washington Post broke, the team at @Flipboard created this Surf Feed of independent journalists. Enjoy it as is, or create a new feed using it as the source, then filter it according to the topics you're interested in, from news to video games.

I am making Small discoveries every day on @surf.social@bsky.brid.gy. You can actually post on your feed into Mastodon or Bluesky thus customizing content you want to share. I want items relating to food for certain #surffeeds. I get around this by sharing only food content and adding filters.
