There is no verified checkmark on Mastodon.
Sometimes I wonder if allowing emoji in display names in the first place was a mistake 😕
@Gargron So the verified thing is an emoji? 
I thought it was real.
Thank you for your reply, disable verified and emoji(on the display name)are two things. But both of them is the symbol of freedom to control their account. It's colorful not just black and white.
About the verified sign at the beginning I don’t like it. Because I feel it’s a twitter thing and mastodon is not twitter, it’s just twitter open this function and now we feel like we are “copy” them ?No we’re not. Because on mastodon we can add anything emoji on display name, it can be a dog a cat even a piece of s**t. Of course include the verified sign.

I wonder why this toot didn't show on my notifications...
An idea based on this: We could disable emojis, only for new users, and adding an "advanced option" for displaying emojis on the name. This should make clear that the verified emoji is just only one more emoji, while also preventing new users from thinking there are verified accounts on the fediverse. What do you think?
