I'm not sure how to get my links verified or how to get the checkmarks beside my links in my self-hosted GoToSocial app. In Mastodon, I had verified, but I don't know how to do it in GoToSocial.

If you're wondering why your link does not get verified after adding the rel="me" link on your website, make sure you save your profile to #trigger the #verification process.

Link verification in your profile… this can only be done if you can code in there, right? (And if you have at least a minimum idea on how to code, right?)

Aha! Worked out how to get my profile link to my blog to go green! It turns out that https://bofh.org.uk isn't the same as https://bofh.org.uk/ as far as the link verifier is concerned.
Weird.

An important matter about #linkVerification #security #infosec that came from birdsite: it is subject to #spoofing attacks. Someone could clone your website on a _similar_ URL to the original one and create a fake #verified profile linking to it. I assume this has been considered by @Gargron et al, but is there some write-up on this?
