Flag representing Mayotte as a part of the Comoros archipelago - Image by Jean-Marc Merklin , 9 May 2024
According to thie website of the presidency of the Comoros [website], it seems that, on the Comorian side, the official de jure flag of Mayotte is a full white flag. Its color is integrated into the Union flag. I don't know if it exists de facto, for example at Beit Salam Palace.

Flag of FD - Image by Ivan Sache, 12 September 1999
The flag of Front Démocratique des Îles Comores (Comoro Islands Democratic Front, FD) is shown on the Flags of Aspirant
Peoples chart [eba94], No. 33, with
the following caption:
MAYOTTE (Comoro Islands Democratic Front)
East Africa;
based on written description.
The flag is green with a white crescent and four white stars placed vertically, therefore nearly identical to the 1996-2001 national flag of the Comoros.

FD, a left-wing political party based in Moroni, Republic of Comoros, have a branch in Mayotte and it is perfectly natural that they would be in favor of national unity. I have never heard of them having a flag, though, and I know the leader of the FD fairly well (he was my neighbour for two years). And yes, there are people on Mayotte who are pro-Comoros (admittedly not many...)
