What does the "☗" symbolize?

Administrator.
If you hover (or, if you're on mobile, however you display the span title attribute), it'll show a tooltip "Administrator".
(I tried to make a screenshot, but for whatever reason can't upload it, so you'll have to make do with a description in text.)

Obviously, we can't tell.
I'm just saying: It's a pentagram, so it'll likely involve dark forces. And a pact with the devil. And certainly some kind of blood magic that's neccessary to keep this site running. To be fair, it might also include a mention of dragons watching the Codidactyl to prevent it from escaping again (there was a nasty incidence last week).
Just kidding, of course. It's a mark for administrators. There is also a title on hover saying "Administrator". :P There is also an unfilled variant (as Monica Cellio mentioned), which indicates moderator privileges.
(On request from msh210) Administrator status is a user role in Codidact, which allows editing all kind of configuration values (site settings, categories, ...).
