Mastodon is not going to allow colored badges anymore, but we are going to keep them in our instance. With this rate of deprecation, we can expect even more forks, but that's OK. Luckily, Mastodon is open source.

The weirdest thing is that they will probably keep the color setting in admin, even though it does nothing.

"We don't need CSS designers anymore, ours are better. We also removed that feature, so it's working as intended." 🤦 😂
