did system that has been aware of being plural for 13 years, our collective name is jelly, which is used more as a title than a name, similar to how you could call a doctor 'doctor' but that's just a role they are filling and not their actual name. certain alters feel more connected to the name than others.
we go through periods of being frontstuck and rapid switching at times, usually whoever is fronting is accompanied by someone in cocon or at least near front. we do have a headspace. we use the terms headmates sysmates alters headspace innerworld etc interchangeably depending on comfort, as well as using both we and i at different times.
SYSTEM
collective pronouns are they/them, most alters do have a preference for he, and a few for she. we bodily identify as transmasc and queer.
certain alters match the symptoms of certain personality disorders such as avpd aspd bpd npd, so please be understanding with them.
SYSCOURSE & SELF DX
we do not engage in syscourse, our stance on it is generally to believe what people say and take it with a grain of salt, only trauma can form systems but amnesia is one hell of a symptom. before we had access to the internet and the ability to have modern day resources regarding trauma, did, osdd, and plurality in general, we would say we were fragments of souls put into one body together because the original one wasn't strong enough to live alone, which would by modern day terms and belief be classified as some form of endogenic system. we did not have the knowledge then to understand what we do now but that does not mean we weren't a system, it means we were using language to describe our experience in the only way we knew how at the time. life is messy, trauma is messy, language and everything else is messy. our core belief is to be kind.
we also believe self diagnosis is valid, access to medical care is a privilege and often costing egregious amounts of time and money that not everyone has. through rapt attention to symptoms, self awareness, and hours days months years of research, it is certainly possible to understand your own mind and learn how to manage these symptoms to improve quality of life. all anyone wants is to feel better.
the only 'systems' we do not understand or support is tulpamancers, for a variety of reasons i am sure you can assume. there is no such thing as making an alter or trying to become a system, and roleplaying as a system is genuinely the worst hobby we have heard of, so please put your energy somewhere more productive and DNI.

The long awaited release of Florality's Open Beta is here, and here are just a few of the features waiting for you:
Open Sign-up- You can now create an account without an invite.
Side systems, subsystems, and nested subsystem logging and management, with a switcher option to view all systems.
Friending users- you can now add your friends and loved ones on Florality!
Privacy buckets- buckets such as regular friend, trusted friend, partner, and complete privacy.
Member statuses- custom statuses which you can assign to your account, active front, or individual members, with each status assignable to privacy buckets.
Intra and inter-system messaging- message between members of your own system or with friends.
These and more features are waiting for you!
If you have any questions or concerns, please join our discord server, or email [email protected].
Is there a way we can join the beta? (I'm not sure if the open one is already out or how to join TwT but we are very interested in trying out this project!)
closed beta no unfortunately, but the open beta will be out in a few weeks! they're still working through bugs and adding features at the moment, glad y'all are also looking forward to it!
we don't think we'd be comfortable in the florality discord server (for a variety of reasons), but we are very much looking forward to it reaching open beta
understandable! no reason to join if y'all don't want to. there is an option for an incognito role which basically hides all the social chats and just shows the announcements and updates. i will also continue posting updates! very much looking forward to open beta as well! ^~^
Closed beta is coming out sometime today and open beta will be in about two weeks, so please look forward to it! A lot of great features!
Info taken directly from the staff below ♡
Here are the things that will be coming to either open beta or the full release!
1) A mind map, where you will be able to make a map of your inner world, this is helpful to see where people are. You may also be able to leave notes where you can tell others in your system where you are and where you were last seen
2) A music feature, post links add songs to profile as a profile set song!
3) System to system messaging boards and pins, notes and dm options !!
4) Discord like emotes will come to the app!
5) a checklist (will attach an image) that allows you to keep up with everything that you could forget!
6) being able to ping other people in the app “this is my brother @/gian” type things
7) relationship tab, a lot like the mind map, but for relationships. This can be romantic or platonic and familial, you will be able to mark down who and what are related to who and what :)
8) as a pk;r instead, you have a “wishing” system that allows you to randomize alters!
9) Custom fronts will be a separate tab where you can choose to input your own front instead of an alter!
10) custom statuses! They’ll not be part of closed beta, but they will be part of (hopefully) open beta and release! Do not fret!!
11) Fragmentation system, that allows you to create a tag, and tag a system member that is not fully functional or defined. This allows for more creative and organization control over your system :) - Coming to open beta
12) A system that will be turn off-able for your fronting status. “Are you sure” when you’re clicking to take someone off front, you can have this feature on, or off. It’s so you do not accidentally take someone off front
13) Jazzie Tutorials, they will show up and help you learn the app, show you how to do things and be helpful this will also allow you to reopen these tutorials, if you must need them :)
14) more customization to banners, you will be able to see it on the scroll list, when you look at all members, as this is a high customization feature it will be behind a paywall, but fear not! Normal banners that appear on the members page is free! And already here! In the beta!
15) This app will have different languages! We will be starting to have a localization only after the full app is released because that requires linguistics so we *will* add languages, but for now we will only be in English as English is mainly in use
16) Privacy buckets will be added to the full release, as this takes time. But we will be adding privacy buckets to individual alters
17) you will be able to leave messages on alters profiles!
18) mood jars will be added later! Aswell you’ll be able to choose your emotion and feeling and add it to a jar throughout the day, this will be added *WAY* later as it takes a lot of code
19) there will be a dropdown option for being on profiles. If you’d do not click on your friends profile you will be able to drop down their system fronting. Though if you click on it it will look like simply plural with all the alters fronting
20) we will have a “who am I” page, though it won’t be intractable it will just look like a resource page, that you can ask yourself and ground yourself. This is more a resource then a “feature” and it will come much later! :D
21) adding a tag for Interactives that you can see next to the profile so you don’t have to use groups for it, saves space and time. Will be implemented in the first version of release
22) will be adding a confirmation button to change information on alters in custom fields will also come in the full release
☆ This is subject to addition, nothing will be removed unless absolutely necessary for the coding to be removed :) and there will be a notice for it
23) A symptom tracker will come. This will allow you to post habits and symptoms in one place to keep it in order, this allows for easier communication and memory of symptoms
24) habits tracking will also come, this will come inside of the members tabs when you make a new member or edit them, you may have habits for alters, others may be able to see them or not up to your comfortability. This helps to identify who is infront and not
25) being able to pin important members to the top of the list to make it easier for you to find important people in your system such as hosts, gate keeper’s.. and more
26) Being able to click multiple users at the same time to add to a folder!
manually typing all our info from simplyplural into google docs to save it for future knowledge
im going through notes and everything and just keep finding records of our gatekeeper pulling moves on EVERYONE! luciel chill tf out!
also the dislikes usually being food related. like oh hey what do you dislike? "sour tomatoes" okay first of all what did you eat to learn that second of all what do you mean sour tomatoes
for anyone looking for a new simplyplural / octocon alternative plural tracking app theres a new upcoming project that looks promising! you may have heard it on other platforms as project jasmine, they have just renamed it Florality!
it will be an app as well as a web browser, and they are working hard to put the web version out before the shutdown of simplyplural in june. if you're interested in it i highly recommend joining the server and checking out the updates and info from the devs and staff themselves!
Florality is an application built for systems living with Dissociative Identity Disorder and other plurality, offering tools to track alters
since simplyplural is going down and various people have begun their own projects, we have been curious about the statistics! please do not answer if you are not part of a system, thanks!
