Huh, cool. My toot made it on #TechCrunch šŖ unfortunately they got the "Image Credits" wrong haha :flan_laugh: Somehow this gives me a feeling they don't get it really :thinktink: I mean it's in the screenshot even lolhttps://techcrunch.com/2022/11/08/what-is-mastodonAnyone from TechCrunch on #Mastodon by any chance?

@stux The ability to verify links is not user-friendly enough :(

That last sentence is fun though:"Some servers are having fun with the idea of verification in a less-than-official fashion. For example, the mstdn.social server lets you add blue-and-white checkmarks and other emoji to your display name if youād like, which make you look verified, even though these donāt mean anything. (Sort of like Twitterās new verification system! But for free!)" Free :verified: for everyone, it doesn't mean shit anyway yaaaay

@robert It's even simpler! Just by pasting the link to their Mastodon on Twitter for example and do the same here on Mastodon but with your Twitter URL it's done already :flan_laugh: Website same deal! šŖ

@stux The comment section points to nowhere and the only way to get a hold of the author is via Twitter. Just lovely

@stux itās wild to me how people are still clinging to a useless, meaningless thing. I got the blue tick on Twitter waaaaay back when they gave it to ānotableā (cough) accounts and the only thing it ever did for me was act like a homing beacon for trolls. Gooooood riddance

@stux Yeah, this is what is so weird about the various "FeDiFiEd" accounts and their boosters here. You have the means to tell people what your source of truth is, right on your own twitter account! Why on earth would you trust middle brokers?!

@ambercadabra Haha indeed :blobcatgiggle: It's kinda fun to see, almost every big 'Twitter migration' (we had some) many users want the :verified: and are proud at first but remove it after some time :blobcatgiggle: I guess they learn here on the Fedi it doesnt matter

@stux so, does having a free check the equivalent of having a vintage uniform shirt with 'Fred' (when that may or may not be one's name) stitched into it like late 90s hipsters?
