Testing our new diversity auto-bot

Hey all… just testing our new diversity message feature :nerd:

We have been in talks with members of minority groups and they have given us some valuable feedback. We discussed whether it would be worth having individual portals (so for example, a portal for female developers) but we eventually settled on having a single diversity portal - one where anyone from any minority group should feel welcome.

Although we haven’t set this portal up yet, we have created the diversity tag, and, to ensure these threads remain a safe place for our members, whenever a thread is tagged with diversity our little autobot will automatically post a note such as the one below.

Although the text is just a placeholder for now, it should hopefully give you an idea of what we intend for such threads :+1:
