As mentioned in the previous post, the Governance community is now live. I have refactored my affiliations lookup script to be more accurate and have added everyone’s application affiliation to their threativore flairs.

I want to say, y’all are pretty creative and keep coming up with favorites I’ve never heard before. I still have quite a lot of uncategorized answers to go through, but most of you have been assigned a tag.

As a way to reward people who are coming up with unique answers, the first person who registers with a new favorite, also gets the a victory cup, orangered color first emoji assigned.

A few of you seem to mention people who are neither anarchists, pirates nor foss (advocates). Usually, and unless that person is a complete reactionary or PoS, we let you through. However you don’t get a first a victory cup, orangered color for that. Instead, you get a snowflake a snowflake, orangered color flair, because you’re special like that 😜

Finally, quite a few people registered before we even had an application form with which to request your affiliation. So as to recognize all you early birds, I have now added a fresh flair Early Bird: a parrot, orangered colors early_bird and is something nobody else will be able to get ;) Thanks for sticking around here for the past 2 years!

So without further ado, here’s the updated stats from this run. I will do another run once I’ve categorized everything I don’t know yet

Btw: I’ve set up this thread in governance for a reason. If you leave a comment here, the bot will reply to you, with your list of flairs. (Still waiting for a UI designer to step up and integrate them on the UI itself 😅)

If you think I’ve made a mistake with your flairs, let me know.

    EDIT: There was a bug with the bot getting confused about people who registered with usernames having uppercase characters. I have now put a bugfix and it will seek correctly. Later on I’ll refresh all other comments posted already

    Just checking, but are the emojis supposed to be that big? They’re taking up more than half my screen width. I’m using Voyager on Android. Normal emojis are the usual size, slightly bigger than the standard text size.

    (plus, of course, I want to know what my flairs are 😁 )

      That’s a voyager issue really. For some reason it’s not resizing them as needed. The normal lemmy ui and tesseract are showing them in line correctly. This needs to be brought up to the voyager dev.

      Your emoji means there’s no emoji. If you posted one of the three affiliations might mean you are one of the 500 or so whose favorite is unknown until now

        Just to update you, I posted a thread on the Voyager community to double check that it wasn’t just a problem on my end, and a few people have replied with similar screenshots from other clients and a PC. If I log in to lemmy.dbzer0.com on the PC without using Voyager, I still get large emojis from this instance, but nowhere near as big as through Voyager, either on mobile or PC.

        I’ve just tried Tesseract on the PC, and both here and Hexbear show the emojis to be roughly the same size as regular emojis. My guess would be that it’s a client issue, but I don’t know enough about how this all works. The thread is here if you’re interested :)

          I think that’s indeed all client issue. Those clients are not resizing the images when they have the relevant emoji string. The emojis in the lemmy ui are indeed large but still parseable. Basically an issue needs to be opened to those devs to handle the emojis correctly. I did the same for tesseract and he fixed it

            I’ve just found your issues for Tesseract. I’ll pass them on to the Voyager dev in the morning, thanks :)

        Ah, I’ll pass the emoji issue on, thanks. I’ve only really seen the problem with Hexbear’s own emojis, but just assumed that it was something to do with the nonsense they’re always accused of.

        I can’t remember what I put in on my application now, but I think I put Blackbeard, then said something like just kidding, and put a digital pirate. It’s been a while though, and my memory’s not that good 🙂

              Ah there we go, you got assigned an icon of a wildebeest, in orange-red, black and white colors because you mentioned lemmy as part of lemmy.world in your application. You didn’t actually mentioned any pirates, just spoke like one pirate captain laughing Do you want me to add an icon of pirate jolly roger skull wearing a hat, in orange-red, black and white colors to your flairs and/or remove an icon of a wildebeest, in orange-red, black and white colors?

                Sorry, I got distracted and forgot to reply 🙈

                That’s odd, I would have sworn that I mentioned someone. I’m sure my brain is giving up.

                If you could add the skull and crossbones, I’d be very grateful, thanks 🙂

    Test, and a couple of quick questions -

    What is the red shields next to the M and A on some of your, and the bot’s replies?

    Where will these flairs actually appear? I see people getting theirs here, but none have any by their user name or on their profile, will they just pop up as replies when we comment on this community, like they are in this post?

    E: got my flair, and while I didn’t mention pirates (I assume that’s why landlubber, which is spot on irl since I get wicked sea sickness lmao), I’m pretty sure I mentioned Kropotkin and Le Guin off the top of my head, so something might have gone wrong along the way

      OK now that your flair are fixed, to answer your questiosn

      Where will these flairs actually appear? I see people getting theirs here, but none have any by their user name or on their profile, will they just pop up as replies when we comment on this community, like they are in this post?

      The hope is that they will appear in your UI, next to the username somehow. Unfortunately I’m not a UI person, so I can’t easily do it myself. Instead I have approached some of the most popular UI devs to see if they would be willing to onboard flairs. Another alternative would be if one or more javascript developers approached me to customize our UI for flairs for this instance. So. fingers crossed.

      What is the red shields next to the M and A on some of your, and the bot’s replies?

      You can mouse over them. M means community moderator. A means instance admin

      Indeed you did. The landlubber just meant you had no flair because the anarchist was missing due to a bug. This is fixed now.

        Thanks, but I mean this 😊

        Moussing over it doesn’t show anything

        Also thanks for fixing my flairs 😁
