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.

    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 🙂
