I remember this, it never caught on beyond Tumblr types, it's from like... 2017? It got real popular in 2018 though.The artist says that the flag is a new version of the lesbian flag. It must've not caught on cos I've never seen it.
Basically there was this flag:

The person who made it was "problematic", but we'll get back to that in a moment. Notice the lips though? Real bitch to draw, so they simplified it to this:

Now, to get back to that "problematic" creator, she was an actual TERFL, Trans Exclusive Radical Feminist Lesbian. Like she doesn't think trannies are women (they aren't), full rad fem, and is an obnoxious lesbian. She actually earned the title.
Now, a big thing with flags is colours representing them, all these colours represent are... popular lipstick colours for femme lesbians. No really, that's it. Pretty lipstick colours among the really feminine lesbians. I spent a bunch of time back in the day to find deeper meaning, there isn't any.
Anyhow, because TERF bad we got this new flag:

What do the colours mean? To quote this source [ARCHIVE], which is accurate from when I looked into this back in the day, they mean the following:
They literally changed it to include non-women in an inherently women's space, that being lesbian relationships.The orange colours stand for “gender non-conformity” “independence” and “community”, the white stands for “unique relationships to womanhood“, pink for “serenity and peace”, dusty pink for “love and sex” and dark pink for “feminity”.
