It's something new we have been trying out. We are wanting to create community engagement, and recognize our community members for their awesome talents and places they visit.

Thank you for your feedback, we are hoping that it really takes off.

+1 for the importance of community engagement. This is how you build a community anywhere, especially on Lemmy. And when you build an awesome community, our feeds fill with good content that helps us keep people interested in the Lemmy federation.
