   I get many questions, so:

   Mastodon does not have verified accounts!

   When you see anyone with a blue/green checkmark behind their name, that's just an emoji. Anyone can set that in their Display Name.

   To avoid confusion, we disabled the :verified: emoji on Mastodon.world a while back.

   If you want, you can still pay $8 like you can on Twitter. Just go to the donations page https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld

   Note: I've been told using emoji in your displayname isn't nice for people using screenreaders.
