Let subscribers decide whether to display the 1st badge or custom sub badge
When you're subscribed to a channel and were amongst those that got the "1st" badge for a channel, there is currently no way to display the "normal" sub badge instead. Many channels have cute/cool/awesome custom sub badges that some subbers would prefer having displayed next to their name in chat instead of the 1st badge.
So there should either be an option to choose which badge to display or alternatively have the 1st badge in addition to the regular sub badge rather than replacing it.
HI there,
You can actually perform the action you have suggested. By default, the Founders Badge will show as your default Subscription Badge. You can hide it, however, in your Security and Privacy settings by toggling "Hide Founder Badge". This setting will be applied site-wide. You cannot selectively hide it for a specific channel, unfortunately.
