@stux Just reported one myself. Yeeesh. Where’d they all suddenly spring up from?

@stux to paraphrase Australia's "my.id": on the Fediverse, the way I post verifies me
@sortius @stux "my shitpost is my passport. verify me."

@poisonpunk @stux that's a separate and (I believe) legitimate thing people are trying to manage.
I see a lot of #gazaverified people acting kinda spammy, though, but I am never sure it's not just a misunderstanding of how to use the platform or sheer desperation.

@stux
what about #GazaVerified ?@poisonpunk @stux That’s very specific. And we never reach out to anyone to ask them to get verified.
(And I wish we didn’t need it.)
