Fediverse doesn't have "verified accounts", but did you know that you can add a verified link to your profile? And it's free!

1. Make a simple website with https://simplepagebuilder.app.
2. Add a little bit of HTML. https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/resources-for-keeping-the-web-free-open-and-poetic/#make-your-website-fediverse-ready

@stefan And you can self verify on any set you can actually insert HTML. I found a route into flickr.

I got 4/4 on my links!

@stefan Also, it would be helpful if other fediverse sites could create verification, e.g. if I added my pixelfed URL to my profile, can it get the verify?

@cogdog Yes, some services do that, like GitHub, others, like SoundCloud don't. (I asked, so maybe one day?)

@Alan is @cogdog I've managed to make a (streams) channel and a WriteFreely blog verify each other.

I don't use Mastodon, but I suppose that Mastodon can verify against both (streams) and WriteFreely (although I don't think someone will actually daily-drive both Mastodon and (streams) at the same time with the same identity).
