@Flipboard @mike Absolutely perfect. Thank you very much for the quick response.

I assume this list will keep being updated?

Also, are these accounts considered official? As in, will they ever be "verified" accounts? Just quickly looking, I see @theverge isn't considered verified, so it's hard to know that we should be following this account as an official account.

Verification here in the #Fediverse is very important, as I'm sure y'all know.

@CliffWade we'll continue to federate some accounts between now and January which we'll announce. When we do phase 2 the list will be hundreds of thousands of accounts globally.

@mike That is absolutely amazing! I'm looking forward to that, especially as someone that runs a #Tech related instance and is always looking for great sites/accounts, users to follow and to recommend to our users.

@cliffwade @Flipboard @mike @theverge verification's done by either looking at the domain name, if applicable (as in, if the account is on an official instance like at mozilla at mozilla dot social), or looking at the profile fields to see if there is a verified one (this is usually a link highlighed in green, with a tick next to it). the only issue with this is that neither are really used by official accounts very often (setting up an instance is hard for non-technical users, and the verified link feature is not widely known).
