Since we're back to doing #FollowFridays, here's a (not exactly comprehensive) list of folks on the #CapitolRiot #Jan6 #January6 beat who've moved to Mastodon based on about ~7 minutes of looking on my part:

• Adam Klasfeld (Law & Crime): @KlasfeldReports
• Roger Parloff (Lawfare): @rparloff
• Brandi Buchman (Daily Kos): @Brandi_Buchman
• Marcy Wheeler (Emptywheel): @emptywheel
• Me (Good Tweets): @JordanFischer

I'll update the list as others point out I've missed them.

@JordanFischer
Most of these folks have websites on their profiles.

I highly recommend following the steps (linked below) to add a bit of HTML to these sites to link it back to your Mastodon profile. Mastodon will detect this and mark the website (not the profile) as verified. Then anyone looking at your profile can see that you (probably) are who you say you are.

Thank you all for all the hard work you've done.

Add a verified website to your Mastodon account : barrd.dev

A three step easy process to add a verified website section to your Mastodon profile with the green box and a verified tick.

@gpetrites Thanks. I've tried to do that but haven't made it work yet. Hopefully this week. @JordanFischer @KlasfeldReports @rparloff @Brandi_Buchman
