Request: special username “flair” for OG testflight gang

Hear me out…

Memmy is going to get big, right? I’d ❤️some way of recognizing the OG team of feedback peeps as we all do our part to grow the fediverse together.

Maybe a colored username, a la the purple u/iamthatis. Maybe a little Memmy icon next to the user name. Maybe something else?!

What do you think? Ideas?

Is there currently any concept of flair in Lemmy, or are you suggesting a separate database the app draws on for that?

I don’t think there’s a concept of flair, yet at least.

When this idea popped into my head, a DB was the first thing that came to mind, but I’m not a back end developer and am not sure if there’s some other clever way to implement such a feature.

Some other idle thoughts..

How would this even be seeded? Instead of Memmy footing the bill for storage, should be in a Locally stored, encrypted db? It shouldn’t grow, given the scope, right?

Would be interesting to know how many of us there are.
