P2 Badge Keep Friendbot guidance consistent

This new blanket deprecation notice conflicts with the same page still advertising Friendbot as available, listing https://friendbot.stellar.org as the Testnet Friendbot API, and telling developers they can request funds through SDKs. For users following the Network Comparison or Friendbot sections, the page now gives contradictory instructions about whether the endpoint should be used; if direct Friendbot access is deprecated, the table and Friendbot section need to be updated with the replacement path or this notice should be qualified.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.


Stellar has three networks: the public network (Mainnet, also called Pubnet or the Public Network), the test network (Testnet), and a dev network (Futurenet).

- **Mainnet** is the main network used by applications in production. It connects to real financial rails and requires XLM to cover minimum balances, transaction fees, and rent.
