What’s the reason they give mastodon the privacy badge, but don’t give it to lemmy or signal?

That's what happens when you half ass your work.

The Fediverse is great, but privacy really isn't its thing. Anyone thinking the Fediverse is the privacy-focused choice has really misunderstood the whole pitch.

Honestly privacy and social media don't make sense together at all. With all of these platforms, your privacy = how much you share on them. You can't share sensitive information on any social media (corpo or federated) and expect it to be private.

Privacy is not only anonymity.

It also includes things like security and built in surveillance capitalism tools.
