Is there really a verified status on here? Whats with those green checkmarks some people have?
@miah I'm not sure — I think they're taking the proverbial, and have simply put :white_check_mark: (white_check_mark) in their display names?

@akr @miah

:white_check_mark: Trustworthy user—identity has been verified by NSA
:grey_question: Questionable user—may or may not be Russian envoy
:red_circle: Currently recording user—probably a camgirl
:large_orange_diamond: Orange diamond user—user has attained Orange Diamond benefits with their Mastodon credit card
:a: A-level user—this is an A-level user
:poop: Troll—this user is bad
:radioactive: Hazardous—this user is probably from the future
:negative_squared_cross_mark: Don't even ask

@miah just a bunch of dorks that want the feeling of being verified so they put a ✅ next to their name
@miah I assume just emoji they added
@miah they're emoji, there isn't any formal verified status ✅✅✅
@miah they just put it in their display name
@miah nope, the verified status is just ppl putting emojjis on there usernames :->
@miah They're just using symbols as part of their usernames; means nothing.

@miah People using the green checkmark emoji :)

@quephird's is especially clever.
