Comparing Reddit’s official badge with the rest, Twitter Blue offers a slew of exclusive features like the ability to edit tweets and post long-form articles. On the other hand, Meta Verified for Facebook and Instagram serves enhanced protection from bad actors and grievance redressal. The official label isn’t a paid perk either, unlike the blue badge sold by Twitter Blue and Meta Verified.
Reddit is sticking to the basics of online legitimacy protocols here, one that is inspired by the original blue tick verification from the pre-Musk era.

As moderators tried to cut down on engagement as a form of protest, Reddit forced their hands and warned that it would start removing mods.
