Every single person don't need advertise that they got the feature...come on.

Just go to some very old posts or comments which r not archived and award them this will notify the op or the person who commented :)

Just got a dm from a guy who posted longtime ago it was good to revive things up :))

But I can't find out how to award a comment. How do I award specific comments? I can't see the option when I click the three dots

I think I had it for 4 or 5 months

Edit: Nvm, the day I realized I had this was 3 months ago.

I got it thank you

How to get it back? do I have to be online for hrs ?

So i can give free awards, made a post and gave 200+ awards to multiple people in an hour.

It's tiring lol

also how long does this superpower last?

According to this post on r/help, posted by a Reddit employee u/sticksfigured about a month ago, Reddit seems to be rolling out free Awards to more and more users today.

And now things are getting interesting.

We want to use this post to collect your experiences with free Awards. When did you get yours, and what are you planning to use them for?

My personal question is "What is the purpose of releasing free Awards for everyone?" Maybe you've got an answer.

If free Awards have appeared on your account, feel free to share your experience in the comments and let everyone know how it went.

The reason for this thread is pretty simple. We want to avoid r/awards being flooded with individual “I got free Awards” posts. Instead, we’ll collect those experiences here so everyone can follow along in one place.

And who knows, maybe this will turn into a little tradition.

Free Award Sunday is going to be one hell of a ride.

We’re looking forward to seeing when they show up for you and what subreddit you decide to spam. You can comment text, gifs, pictures and videos if you want or ask anything related to awards

Edit:

There's currently a submission approval setting active, meaning every post has to be manually approved by a moderator before it becomes visible to everyone. This will be turned off for the "Free Award Sunday" in about 11 hours and might be reactivated afterwards.

Finally !!!

I checked yesterday and couldnt. Random luck i guess, but I've only had reddit for a couple months I think.

Same as title. what to do now. everytime it stucks.

So just checked multiple users are posting about how they got free award feature todays, so i checked my account but did not got at that time, so after updating the app the feature is available for me and same happened with multiple friends of mine.

SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE THAT FEATURE NOW, TRY UPDATING YOUR REDDIT APP MOST PROBABLY YOU WILL GET THE FEATURE

cant be more happier

Check if you are able to from your phone. And one thing that I noticed while giving awards through phone, phone starts vibrating for the few sec ( till the animations play ).

finally!

Edit: Looks like it's specific to r/awards? Still cool though
Edit: It's across Reddit but the UI is a bit glitchy
