Hey, if you want to be "verified" on the fediverse as being _actually you_, you don't need some third party to verify you or to check some list.

Got a domain you own, that's obvs you?

Paste `<a rel="me" href="https://your.server/@your_username">Mastodon</a>`into the html on that domain, add that domain to your profile links, bam, verified at least as comprehensively as a lot of folks on birdsite.

If this seems hard, I will help you! You can verify yourself, promise!

@phildini I'm sad that it doesn't work with Google Sites with a custom domain. Some people do it on GS by adding the code to an iframe. It works because the iframe has the same domain as the parent, but with a custom domain, they are different. 😞
I wish there were alternatives.
