#bluetick — Public Fediverse posts

I find it difficult to see the value in paying a premium solely for a badge that signifies perceived authenticity and visibility on a corporate platform. I believe that our genuine selves shouldn't be subject to additional charges. As a result, I have decided to direct my support and resources elsewhere.

Really happy with this week's ep of Vertical Hold: Behind The Tech News. I'm joined by Finder's Angus Kidman and Kotaku AU's David Smith to talk about the whole Blue Tick/Meta Verified Mess, how the NBN is changing plans for Satellite users, Navman exiting the Aussie consumer GPS market and how one small Sydney game dev is making FPS accessible for the deaf. It's a lot to pack into just one show!

🧵 4/5

To qualify for #TwitterCommunityNotes you need
- a #twitter account more than 6 months old
- a phone number attached to it
- no recent activity reported (offensive, spam, etc.)
- and you need to sign up

But there's a waiting period AND THEN you can't write notes until you've rated dozens of other notes.

So, a lot of people can't do anything other than a reply tweet that just gets buried under the #BlueTick noise.

So… #CommunityNotesRequests

I guess there is no #Bluetick in mastodon right ? Genuine question.

How do we know if we’re following a ‘real’ celeb? Or is this not for celebs yet?

Thats a nice #blueTick you added after your #Fediverse account name all by yourself.
