AFAIK they aren’t there yet right? Should the developers of lemmy do it or should it be up to the instances to decide whether to do it or how to implement them?

I don’t have anything specifically against flairs, but I wish people would get away from the idea that Lemmy needs to copy every aspect of Reddit.
I think someone will add it to base Lemmy eventually, but I doubt it’s high priority. Might be a while.
I think they will very useful if and when the user base of the bigger instances become big enough, I don’t know how fast we will get there though.
It’s possible to hashtag Lemmy posts. That might be a good stop-gap
I survive without flairs, karma and awards

There is also the issue of post tags
I see the devs arent too fond of the idea.
I don’t get that impression, honestly. They seem open to the idea but not giving it a big priority, which I can understand too.
