I Can't Earn the "Thanks for Sharing" Badge

I think there might be a bug with the "Thanks for Sharing" badge. I have tried sharing multiple activities with various apps (Facebook, Twitter, Google, Instagram, email, SMS...) and have not been able to earn the badge. This isn't a big deal, I'm just trying to figure out if I'm doing something wrong or if there is something broken with the badge. Other friends of mine have earned the badge by doing the same thing I did so I am leaning towards something stuck on my account.
  • Check out my walking activity on Garmin Connect

    Looks fine, the badge is there

  • (SOLVED) - I tried sharing everywhere and it didn't worked. THEN, I tried to share via "copy link" in order to post it in the thread for badges not received and the APP asked me: "This post must be public to be able to share it, would you like to make it public?" So I agreed and then shared the link in STRAVA. It worked. Probaly just need to change the settings to "public" for this specific activity. Pretty sure any other app would have worked, but I had already shared on Facebook and IG and I didn't wanted to double-post the same thing.

  •  in my case it seem like it needed a visitor to the link before it counted. 

  • You need to share the Thanksgiving badge, not the event that earned the Thanksgiving badge.
