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…).
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. ↩︎
Can it be an ascii and emoji picture? I have an ex who made guy with an eggplant for a dong
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 (⁂)
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.
There’s a couple options on the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse
Edit: not sure if the page exists in Catalan or not, though. Força Barça.
Thanks, but I prefer an emoji/utf-x. Images are a problem when it comes to fitting text around them.
i visca catalunya
i roja (and red)
I don’t know for sure, but GIMP may be able to convert an image to emoji/utf-x.
