Tumblr has been enjoying a resurgence thanks to some recent
policy changes and ongoing chaos at Twitter, and that’s drawn a few
real-world celebrities like Ryan Reynolds and Lynda Carter to the platform. Unlike most big social
networks, though, Tumblr doesn’t verify high-profile accounts’ authenticity. That’s caused a little confusion
since, without a link from some known off-platform account, it’s almost impossible to tell if these accounts are
real. Fortunately, Tumblr
is rolling out a new feature that will do absolutely nothing to change this — and you can buy it for a
one-time fee of $7.99.
