So do we have a way to get #Verified on #Mastodaon yet without having to have "A Website" ?
I'm me here, I'm me on FB, I'm me on Google and YouTube.... There must be some kind of option no???
HALF-LIFE is currently FREE to pick up in STEAM! ☣️ 🎮
The game is also supported natively on LINUX - so if thinking about giving a nice classic start to Linux gaming.... :thinkhappy:
Steam Deck ✅ additionally.

Still seeing a lot of "#verified" #Mastodon #accounts that link to some more-or-less dubious, intermediary websites - while maintaining a perfectly suitable #website of their own.
If you won't link from your own website to your (alleged) Mastodon account, your green checkmark won't add much to your account's credibility.
Here's how to change that:

this blue check mark that many put voluntary - facepalm emoji - give me ptsd. why on earth would you bring anything from the bird site here? do you think that it give you any authority? do you think that it make your content more trustworthy?
it doesn't. for me you're just promoting elmo marketing. not ideal.
and most don't need it anyway, your are great nonetheless. you can verify yourself with mastodon tools if needed.

Commit on GitLab:
https://gitlab.com/coocook/coocook/-/commit/856f9c67bca1b202086510236bce985e46c39e2d
Getting a verified link to #GitLab seems to be an open issue on their side since 2018:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/25404

I did it. My blog is now officially #verified on here 😆 :verified: took me a while to figure out how to do it but I got it.
I talk a little about verified links at the end of my current blog post @humanissome
I see the Fedi version of this principle in contrast to authority-bestowed legitimacy. I'll share the relevant section and add some more thoughts in toot 2:
On #Meta and Musk platforms “verification” is a paid-for feature, rendering it meaningless. All my links to myself on the #Fediverse show as #verified because that's how the web standards are designed to work! #Verification occurs automatically because 1/2
I changed my profile picture on X and lost my verification… By the time I get my blue checkmark back, the Tesla Cybertruck will probably be parking ppls driveways.
The #Fediverse is the internet.
It’s funny having to explain the ways of the fediverse to those unfamiliar with it, as though this network is highly strange, when the fediverse is closer to the original concept of the worldwide web than any of the walled gardens. All those massively successful for-profit sites ‘break’ the internet. The fediverse puts it back together!
This post in part inspired by my 3 #verified links in bio, none on sites I own, because they’re on the fedi & designed to work.

#Twitter further restricts free tier with option to limit replies to #verified accounts https://www.theregister.com/2023/10/11/twitter_replies_useless/ "X has made changes that could serve to amplify #disinformation and malicious content, such as last week's move to remove headlines presented alongside links to articles.

Check out Linkstack! If you care about being #verified on #mastodon & you do not currently manage your own online content, Linkstack works where Linktree does not. Compare. For the moment my Masto profile has links to both side by side. As a #fediverse entity Linkstack evidently knows the good of adding rel=me to a link. I did nothing extra. It's a joy to leave Linktree's typical obnoxious capitalist behavior behind.
My Linkstack has only Mastodon so far, as a test: https://linksta.cc/@RMiddleton

FIY Just got a #call from "Florida" - of course not in my #contacts - rang once, hung up, and then called me right back.
The really interesting thing is - It said it was a #verified caller verified by my carrier, and it got past my #block of caller who aren't in my contact list.
I'm sure it was a #scam they didn't leave voice mail, I blocked and reported - but the fact is I shouldn't have got the call in the first place
#Scammers are figuring out ways around being blocked.
@primesuspect @godotengine @defold It would be cool if there was some #XboxDev @ mastodon.gamefev.place account or if #Microsoft would start it's own #Fediverse instance...
This would really allow then to also provide #verified :verified: accounts by Microsoft i.e. for #Xbox and other products & services.

I just got #T2 authenticated today.
I've had my share of being impersonated online, so if there is an "official" authentication system available, I take the opportunity (but not Twitter and Meta, they rejected me multiple times).
So, I guess before this week ended, there's something good that happened. It at least lifted my soul.

::: Steam Deck hits 11 000 games playable 🎮 :linux: :afire:
Linux gaming is positively on FIRE nowadays! Who would have thought a few years back?
No other gaming console offers this level of game availability - Valve thought things out wisely - and in rapid mode (Microsoft's walled garden plans surely boosted this) :thinkhappy:
Already own a Steam Deck...?

Well, this is fun. I went to message a person on Twitter whom I've followed for years, bought art from, and messaged back and forth multiple times during that period (mutual conversation). I was going to reach out to them again (to invite them here) and #Twitter is requiring that I get #verified first (as in "Pay"). Even the person I am messaging is not verified, it's not their rule. Just wow.
Has anyone managed to get their Ko-fi link verified on Mastodon yet?
Great blog post. I would like to leave Twitter but I'm a nobody and nothing will change if I leave, and as long as most of the somebodies stay there, I feel I have to keep going back there to see what's going on.
Anyway, delayed reply here because I also wanted to post something about the blue checks - here is is.
Ooo there we go finally got #verified :)
What's the point of buying something if you don't want to show it off?
Unless you're actually ashamed of your life choices...

You know, while it is on my mind. #ElonMusk and what he has left for a #Twitter team. Is doing one #shitty job at trying to sell #TwitterBlue to people.
1) With the cutting of #Dms and making it #verified only for some users.
2) The #limitations for #Tweeetdeck and how #RateLimits are fucking that over hard. Plus the fact they #removed it from #Legacy instantly after #announcing that Tweetdeck was going to blue exclusively. That is terrible #business and pushes people away. Like me.

i finally #verified my #website for all of my #furry trash, https://bird.tacowolf.net. it's still in construction and nowhere near as polished as i'd like it to be but it's mine. :3
#Threads currently depends wholly on:
1. The massive amount of #celebrities and #verified accounts that got first dibs to create the illusion of content.
2. #Instagram users making the leap.
(Amending to add a number 3.)
3. People who loved #Twitter giving it a chance (arguably this should have been my number 1).
There's not much to the app beyond that, but I will applaud them on a flawless execution of the basics of Twitter (#retweets #QuoteTweets and the feed itself).
75% of Steam Games Ever Tested are now either Playable or Verified on the Steam Deck (that's 13306 games ever tested at the time of writing).

Verifying your profile on Mastodon is free and easy if you have your own web site or blog or etc.
https://joinmastodon.org/verification
People will tell you it doesn't mean anything but that is not true. It tells you that the owner of the site and the owner of the account on Mastodon are the same. And that is not nothing, especially for big entities whose web site you already trust.
Some sites, like Bandcamp, add the rel=me tag automatically when you create a link.
Furthemore, do _not_ add your Mastodon-handle to your OSM-profile (like <a href='https://your.server/@username' rel='me'>My mastodon</a>)
This will cause the aforementioned bot to also mention you - which slows down everything.
At last, if you linked your mastodon, do not add your OSM-profile in the metatags of your Mastodon. This will add the #verified-checkmark, but we remind you that linking to other platforms is prohibited! For this, you need to purchase #MastodonGreen !
Discovered something while going through the verified and playable data for the recent titles on the Steam Deck.
Valve and their partners are more often than not validating the games BEFORE they even release. And that's not just for games in early access, even some games that are only planned to be released in 3 months are already validated!
#Musk just introduced a "read-limit". #Verified accounts can read 6000 tweets a day, #Unverified can read 600 tweets a day.
Official reason: "measure against data scraping" (I‘ll explain why this is bs below)
Inofficial but actual reason: #Twitter is running out of money and Muk needs to take even more drastic measures to force people to buy #TwitterBlue
🧵Here is why Musks explanation is bs:

@Gargron @mattferrell Verification in search, nice!
I have decided the Twitter Blue Tick is Elon's Uno Reversi card. Good is bad. Smart to dumb. Unverified now verified.
And so, now the only verified users I trust -- are those without the Blue mark of the beast!
UNverified is now more trustworthy than "verified!"
You know, I was *this* close to getting @botwiki verified on Twitter, right before Elon took over.
Really dodged a bullet there, whew.
Well #Musk has hit the switch and removed the #LegacyTicks on the #BirdSite, let's face it he's destroying the platform more and more every day.
The #Verified blue tick has now become a joke!
What are your thoughts on users here on Mastodon that put a verified emoji next to their username?

Our dev team just pushed some changes to verifiedjournalist.org
On the front:
- It's now easier to add a new listing.
- Updating your verified profile is now easier.
- Lots of bugs were squashed.
- Hooks added to the code to make posts of the claimed and verified profiles boolean searchable. We'll be adding this search next week.
- Cleaned up homepage
On the Back:
- Lots of automation added to make it easier to administer.
How do you feel about #Medium introducing a #verification process as part of their instance and #subscription price?
Yes, they are #centealized company, but they are joining the #fediverse and are in an excellent position to do verification.
Yes, they allow you to verify your #Mastodon account by linking it to your #Medium account with a URL, but they can also verification similar to #Twitter before it just became a pay-to-scam feature.
I actually like the idea. For example, let's say a #Youtube creator uses #Medium to post extra content, transcripts, or longer discussion articles. #Medium can then verify that it is indeed that Youtuber and also verify their #Mastodon account and identity.
Yes, they can verify their identity by linking the #Youtube channel by connecting it with a URL, but an automated #verified checkmark next to their profile name could be fun and useful.
Look at this foolishness. I used to crave a legitimately-earned blue check mark on Twitter. Now, I wouldn’t even want one. (if I were still active on Twitter.) I discussed this at length on this episode of the podcast: http://www.therobburgessshow.com/2022/12/ep-220-rob-burgess-xiii.html?m=1

@QasimRashid Well, you can solve this issue by using https://keybase.io and verify both your #Mastodon and #Twitter accounts [or if you're really lazy, use https://linktr.ee or your own website]...

@neilhimself This may be my fav John Mastodon take next to the one by @YaleDivinitySchool “Any study of #JohnMastodon must include parallel study of Mark, Matthew, and Luke Mastodon” 🤣👍 and of course the #verified fact that John owns a tiny flock of #ChickensInSweaterVests
@taylorlorenz Why haven't you #verified your account with a website of yours to increase #trust?
It's easy to do. In your case I would put the link (from your profile below metadata) here:

Hmmm. I put on rel="me" links on my two linked sites nearly 24 hours ago and they still don't show up in my #MastodonProfile as #verified. Is that typical? Am I #DoingItWrong? #MastodonQuestion

These stopped being given out in October 2010. You cannot get one any more and if ever it were not renewed, it would be gone forever.
In other words, I'm not just verifying I'm me with my own personal website, I'm verifying my continuing presence online since 2010 with it in a way no newcomer online can duplicate.

“The shift in speech is just the tip of a set of changes on the service under Musk. Accounts that Twitter used to regularly remove — such as those that identify as part of the Islamic State, which were banned after the U.S. government classified #ISIS as a terror group — have come roaring back. Accounts associated w/ #QAnon, a vast far-right conspiracy theory, have paid for & received #verified status on Twitter, giving them a sheen of legitimacy.
