This is something that is probably better if implemented in Lemmy itself. It would be tied to a particular community, and it wouldn’t need to cross over between instances.
If someone tried to make a browser extension for it, it would only appear for people using the same browser extension. Some third party apps have it like that, and it’s not that helpful.
What’s better for a browser extension / app to take on is cross-instance functionality, such as jumping between instances, having buttons / content in the UI, etc. I’m working on an extension for that ( !instance_assistant@lemmy.ca ), and while I really want flairs as well, I don’t think it would be good for a browser extension.
Once it’s implemented in Lemmy itself, then we could probably make it easier to add/remove/view/filter flairs using a browser extension.
What if lemmings made a browser extension to add them? Or maybe the Lemmy team can do that?
