Possible way of specifying we are developers

Hello,
So I think a checkbox like this existed a while back, but it got removed. I do not remember why, or perhaps its removal was never publicly documented. However, for developers like me, it helps distinguish between normal posts and developer posts.
I think the issue with the original checkbox is anyone could check it and instantly, they were a developer. Perhaps there could be a verifcation system in place (e.g. Itch.io, GitHub, App Store, developer website, or having at least one of your apps posted on AppleVis).
I'm just winging it here, but if people have any ideas (whether you are a developer or not) don't hesitate to bring them forward.
Cheers.
