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?

Yep, I'll document it in some way. A FEP seems overkill as it's really just adding a bit more data onto Actors and Activities, not a big deal.

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
I'm looking to create an FEP for cross posting and would love to get the entire threadiverse dev community involved.
