Hello dear friends,
As you know, we decided to run a best of 2020 contest[1] where 20 winners get an exclusive Owl of Minerva award which grants them 1 month Reddit premium. Now it is time to vote. The voting for best question[2]is still ongoing - you can still vote until the end of the contest.

In this thread, we vote for best answer until approximately Wednesday - depending on my schedule.
This thread is in contest mode, meaning you should see comments containing a nomination each in random orders. Upvote or downvote nominations. The winners will be the ones that have the most votes at the end of the week :)
You can! Just put a comment below in the same format mine are: Link to thread, ping to user and a short description of the answer you nominate.
To keep this concise, please put them in the open discussion thread which you find linked at the top of the subreddit.
