Experiment: Hiding power badges

Power badges will be hidden on Warpcast for a week. We’re running this experiment because:

1. New user find it hard to get follows due to “power badge bias”
2. Power badge isn’t being used much in Warpcast anymore.

I still like power badges because they help me identify if I'm dealing with a legitimate account or a scammer trying to impersonate a project or user.

IRL: Creative Director who makes movies and ads.

I have seen many dubious accounts with badges. If you want verification, it should be another way.
