There's a powerful search for filtering by country, language or software (#Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Ghost, #Bluesky...) & you can easily export the results for batch-following (in Mastodon at least).

I'm always searching for (verified!) accounts, that I missed. If you know some, please send them to @mho@social.heise.de

Because they were added by Flipboard.

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 is it's own media platform that is embracing AP. So these are just mirrors from Flipboard publishers.
