didn't get you

are you asking if powerbadge still exists? or about the purge

Spam Labels have been public for a month and we've seen significant updates to the number of casters with Level 2 Labels (the good one) and the consequences of the Level 0 Label (the worst one) via the Great Follower Purge of February 2025. 

With a resurgence of bot-like accounts this weekend, the algorithm will only get more aggressive. 

I've made significant revisions on this article as the team has given us more clarity around the algorithm as well as included resources on how to save your friends from spam jail and a thread on the teams thinking about spam. 

Please remember this is guidance, not gospel. The algo is secret.  Always appreciate any feedback or areas I can clarify.

Warpcast will remove "likely to be spam" accounts from follow counts soon. 

Likes and recasts from spammy accounts have been removed from counts for several weeks. We're now going to remove follow counts from these accounts as well.

on the purge- follower count would be reduced since the "likely to be spam" accounts are removed from the list. more about this in the casts below

recaster (FC client) has this powerbadge showcased across profiles when you use it. I think it was used a year back (?) to denote the active users. it was a successor of the famous "active" badge which was gamed.
