@ruari What I mean is that symbols can be repurposed without loosing the meaning of their previous uses, it’s all a matter of context!
As for proposing to Unicode, it’s not the way to go to propose a new symbol out of the blue. It only accepts symbols that are already widely in use with a clear meaning.
@ruari One good thing about the ⁂ (besides its look and the conceptual meaning we can put behind), is that’s its other uses are relatively nice and not used much in social media contexts. So we believe there is a space for it to be used with a meaning here without conflicting with its others. When I read a book and see a dinkus, I’m not going to thing “fediverse”.
@FediverseSymbol I read the book. Very much enjoyed it! I think it's over a decade old now? A second updated edition would probably be justified!
And I'll find his account ;-)
