You keep spelling my name wrong and I keep telling you that I don't play classical guitar.

It's @Mrfunkedude

Get it right! 😉

@FediFollows @gretathunberg hi there Fedifollows. I know being verified on mastodon is not happening (yet)... but I wonder if someone put themself on here impressionating themselfs to be a well known or famous person.. how do people really know it's the real person?

We are pretty new to mastodon ourselfs so we just wonder how the verification works on making sure people are getting influenced by the real people and not fake accounts that impressionate someone else?

@catsofmastodon @FediFollows @gretathunberg assuming that most people of influence would have a website they could opt to add a verification badge to their site, can be found in settings on Mastodon. Not a catch all but a good option.

@FediFollows @gretathunberg @georgeyoung @FritzBauerInstitut @gitarra @eamonn_kerins

thanks! Keep these suggestions coming. Having a hard time finding my way around here. Lots of mirrors that look like doors, and Vice-versa.
