I have now found 1070 verified accounts from media organizations in the #Fediverse, but only on #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Bluesky, #Ghost and #Peertube.

Just one is on #Sharkey (๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป @heiseBotti) and none on #Pixelfed, #Lemmy, #Piefed, #Misskey & Co. Are there really none there, or did I miss some?

What do you mean by verified? I'm not sure there's such a thing as "verification" on Lemmy, at least.

Also, if the organisation shares their fediverse profile on their official website, you can consider them verified

@gon

I, for example, also count it as verified if an organization links to their account on their website...

Probably verification by the associated domain. At least this works on Mastodon and Friendica.
