See notifications from people you care about

The new Priority feed shows notifications is a combo of people you follow and people with a power badge. New notifs here are counted in the unread badge (red dot).

We’ve also added a bunch of notification-specific filters to make browsing easier.

What’s a power badge? Same as that active badge resistor looking thing?

It's basically a lighweight PageRank system. Approx. ~3K users have it.

Active badge (the previous version) was too easy to game, esp. for spammy accounts.

This still has some slippage re: quality, but significantly harder to game.
