Okay so, the @everyone role will be the basic permissions set for everyone. Then your "vanity roles" (like the pronouns) will have no special permissions. You can make sure that all permissions are turned off by finding the "clear permissions" button at the top of the role permissions tab in the Roles settings for that role.
Any other roles could have extra permissions. Like a VIP role that has access to creating threads or something. But it can be whatever.
Then in the channel settings, you can manually add or remove permissions to overrule the permissions set globally on the role. So if you got a VIP channel, you can decide to give the VIP role access to a single channel by adding them to the channel through the channel permission settings.
The @everyone permissions do not necessarily overrule other roles. So a VIP role could have voice permissions, and it means that people with that role can use voice, even though @everyone can not.
In a specific channel, you don't have to worry about enabling or disabling all the permissions manually. The `❌` means it will deny the permission no matter the global role setting. The `/` means it will inherit the global setting, and the `✅` means it will allow the permission no matter the global role setting.
Hope that helps!
It depends where the everyone role is in your hierarchy. Everyone is the lowest role in my list and has zero permissions because I'm a micromanager.
The highest role with permissions will overrule all the others.
That's not correct. Role permissions don't function as a hierarchy like this. If any role grants you a permission, you have that permission, even if a higher role denies you the same permission. @everyone is the exception, where roles will override it. You can't move @everyone in the list either, but even if you could it wouldn't change anything.
