Every time someone shares one of your posts or clicks on the hubwheel next to your comment, it contributes to filling out your hubwheel at the top of the screen. Each time it's filled, you get a badge that you can give away.

I don't believe that you can give away badges that other people have given you. Though, I have not received any badges myself, so I may be mistaken. thenewgreen or insomniasexx could probably answer that question.

Do you know how the specifics work in regards to the hub wheel? Is one post successfully reaching a completely hub wheel adding 1 dot to your hub wheel?

Nah. I don't know the exact numbers, but it's a not a 1 to 1 ratio. It's a much slower buildup. Don't worry and don't overthink things. Your wheel will fill up eventually.

No, it's a formula that mk knows. It's based on how appreciated (shared) your posts and comments are by the community.

rd95 Once you receive a badge you cannot re-gift it, so to speak. It's permanently attached to you and the content that warranted it.

Check out the welcome video, it delves in to badges a bit:
