About 'verified' badge on mstdn

If you edit and suffix ":verified:" to your username, you get the badge

This emoji is not available on mastodon.social

This is why @RahulGandhi@mstdn.social and @PriyankaGandhi@mstdn.social joined mstdn and not mastodon

Both are fake IDs

@SquareGas so we can switch our account from one instance to other?

@Law_Purush In Tusky, you can maintain different accounts, even from different instances

In above screenshots, I am maintaining same username on mastodon (my primary) and mstdn (my backup). But, this is unnecessary because users across these instances can interoperate

Also, if anytime you wish, you can transfer all your posts and followers to any other compatible instance. Both instances must be running latest mastodon version. There are tutorials available for it

@SquareGas Ohh. Then no point in switching instances. Thanks for the help. Appreciate it.
