TL;DR: What is the best (or good enough) emoji to represent the fedivers?
I'm updating my union section's website [^1] (wordpress) and I want to add a link to the mastodon account of a territorial grouping using an emoji. This territorial grouping has an account on mastodon and hubzilla, it abandoned corporate social accounts (x, insta…).
[^1]: I'm from Catalonia, where most of the unions are federated/confederated industrials unions and 'Seccions Sindicals' are the organizational structures of the union in each of the companies.

There's been people trying to push ⁂ as a way to represent the fediverse using a unicode symbol. I'm not sure it's really taken off, but it's an option.

Thanks, I'm not sure if it's better that the suggestions of @pruwyben@discuss.tchncs.de (⭐, 🌟) or use some 'gloves' emojis (🌍, 🌎, 🌏, 🌐). But I will try it (⁂)

Making this a TLC to promote visibility, though I wasn't the one to discover it:
I think it works great, in reference to the rainbow star thing!

The most common symbol is the rainbow pentagon star thing, which there isn't much very close to in emoji, but you could use ⭐ or 🌟.

There is ⚝
U+269d"Outlined White Star". Tho no idea how well it looks at any usual reading resolution (12 to 16 pt).KoboldCoterie@pawb.social · 9 pts · 1y
Ooh, I like this one. A unicode approximation of an already accepted symbol is nice.

How much say do you have on the technical site of the page? Maybe have a custom icon recognized by the templating engine, using a Unicode code point from the private use area. This could be implemented using an icon font.
The commonly used symbol to represent the Fediverse is this one.
