Thanks. Do you think the abbreviation of the flair list is helpful?
I know that too many flairs can bork the commenters line, but an ellipsis is not helpful to understand what the flairs actually are. How many people will click-through to find out?
This defeats the purpose a flairs, IMHO.

Which context do you mean, just for comments specifically? I could see that in a discussion thread, in a list of comments, it could be helpful to see more of them unabbreviated.
I'll give it some time and see how the current presentation feels.
can I make a flair that says admin or OP?

I like a lot the [OP / Mod / whatever]. That is pretty cool and helps a lot.

I'll probably add a list of disallowed words to prevent the confusion and manual moderation work.
I look forward to experimenting with this. Thanks skyjake!

@michaelnordmeyer Flairs are different to moderate for sure. They are an extension to people's names. As a rule of thumb, the CoC still applies: no slurs etc., and the flairs should be about the person themselves and not an unrelated message to some other party. Subspaces can have stricter rules about flairs, like requiring them to be about some specific detail related to the subspace.
It might be worthwhile to add a subspace option to prevent adding flairs specific to the subspace.
Bubble v8.1: Flair Composer, User-Defined and Moderator Flairs — This release fixes a number of bugs and significantly expands the flair mechanism added in v8.0. You now have control over your own flairs via a flair composer UI. The presentation of flairs has been tweaked accordingly. Moderators of a subspace also have new flair-related abilities. Flair Composer The fact that flairs were fully admin-controlled in v8.0 was largely due to implementation details: at that time I didn't have any...
