Bluesky has unveiled a new feature allowing verified accounts to display a blue checkmark. This update enables select independent organizations, such as The New York Times, to authenticate their employees directly. Users can check which entity verified an account by tapping on the blue checkmark. This system is similar to Twitter's prior verification model and aims to enhance trust on the platform. Currently, Bluesky does not accept direct applications for verification, but future plans include a request form for notable accounts seeking verification.
Bluesky introduces blue checkmarks for verified accounts, allowing select organizations to verify their employees, such as journalists from The New York Times.
The new verification system aims to establish authenticity, with users being able to see which organization granted a blue checkmark.
Bluesky's verification is reminiscent of Twitter's earlier model but currently does not accept direct applications for verification.
The blue checkmarks are part of a broader verification process alongside Bluesky's existing verified domain system for users.
