Verification is a feature of postLit that certifies a user being a known public figure and not an imposter or parody account. There are requirements for being verified that allow the status to be exclusive and remain meaningful. postLit's moderation team has the final say in whether or not a person receives verification, and it's a privilege that can be taken away if a person breaks certain rules or does not deserve verification.
The official icon displayed on verified profiles and the explore page.
You can easily recognize a verified user because there is a badge on their profiles indicating that they're verified on the explore page.
To ensure that the verification status and icon remain meaningful, it is restricted to popular public figures and postLit users. You can be a developer/maintainer of large projects, an influencer on social media, a government figure, or other things. A full list of minimum requirements are written on the verification page.
While there are minimum requirements for being verified, they aren't the only factor in your path to verification, if you choose to take it. postLit's moderation team has the final say, that way they can make sure that you truly deserve the verification icon. Their decision can also be influenced by followers and invites, as well as activity on the site.
