Designers, we need your help.

Amethyst uses 3 "verification" symbols and they all resemble Twitter's with a different color. I'd like to move away from Twitter's symbol and increase their effectiveness in communicating what they trully mean without any other explainer in the UI.

The 3 symbols are:

1. The "you follow this person" verification symbol in the top-right corner or every profile picture. This helps people identify impersonators easily.

2. NIP-05 "verification" icon as the @ on their email address in 3 states: verifying (yellow), verified (blue) and failed verification (red). Failed verification should be a big red flag that something is wrong with this account and might be potentially hacked.

3. The hash verification for NIP-94 and NIP-95 images and videos. This means the image that was downloaded to the phone is exactly the same as the image uploaded by the author.

Please send ideas for the 3 icons. Anything helps.

1. a purple border (thin line) around pfp if following, no border if not following

2. just purple text if domain up, grayed out if not

3. what does it mean again if the pic has a check?

As Amethyst adds more streaming stuff, may be good to reserve pfp border colors to indicate someone is streaming on a Nest or something.

I think the icon for a mutual follow should be 🫂

good point! alternatively, a red blinking icon (rec) could also be used for indication of being live
