I admit I like upvotes. They provide feedback on whether a comment was helpful. And awards highlighted the most helpful comments.

Did you mean awards? I haven’t found anyone who doesn’t like upvotes so I’m not sure why the distinction

The point I tried to make was: Awards are like an upvote on steroids. I like upvotes, so I like awards.

Sorry for wording it so badly.
