Post flair in PieFed
Each community in PieFed can have it's own set of "flair" options that posters can attach to their posts. Clicking on a flair will filter the community to only show posts with that flair so they function as a filtering mechanism as well as a visual identifier.
Community moderators can manage the flair that are available in their communities:
When creating posts, expand the 'more options' area to assign one or more flair to your post:

Flair doesn't federate yet but it will in coming days.

@rimu@piefed.social interesting, how does this differ from tags?
Edit: I see the other post you made. I'm interested in this but hoping you'll write up an FEP for this so it is more easily implemented by others.

I think the FEP process is overly complicated for what it is, but it's definitely helpful if you have multiple implementors on board.
The easiest (but least accessible) solution is to document something on your own site, but that lacks the social proof that a finalized FEP has.
Just some food for thought ๐ I'm looking to create an FEP for cross posting and would love to get the entire threadiverse dev community involved.

in reply to Microw • • •Tags, aka hashtags, are instance-wide (not just in a community) and interoperate with Mastodon, Pixelfed, Mbin. Anyone can make a new hashtag and they are completely unmoderated.
Flairs are a limited list determined by each community's mods and are only used in that community. They will federate with other PieFed instances and with Lemmy (when they finish coding what they're calling "tags", a really unfortunate choice of name).
