From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is this specific to the Mastodon implementation or is it in the ActivityPub protocol specification?
The Washington Post article linked in "Read More" claims:
However, after a quick Google search, it seems only Mastodon supports this. All results for "fediverse verify" only mention Mastodon.
That likely just means that none of the other fediverse projects has implemented it yet.
