Local news just called #Twitter a $44 billion dumpster fire - couldn’t agree more.
Since there is not supposed to be verification on #mastodon I was very confused to see that some people who recently migrated from #twitter have Twitter #verified badges.
For other #newbies who’ve just arrived during the great #migration, I’ve since learned that this is just a custom emoji that some servers have made available for users to add to their profile name… but it has no real meaning.
Officially migrated to Mastodon… I'm a passionate and driven Hospice Dietary Aide, inspired by David Bowie and Penn & Teller. Always striving to make a difference, I'm committed to learning and bettering the lives of others.
