Suggestion: Anonymous hugs

Occasionally, you feel that someone needs a hug, but it might not feel entirely appropriate to leave them a message, for various reasons.

Perhaps having the option to "give an anonymous hug" on the user profile would allow people to be empathetic without being too intrusive into the recipient's life.

There is a small chance of misuse, but it could be mitigated by allowing only members that have reached a certain level of progress to provide hugs.

@ZaraSmiles, thank you for the positive feedback and pointing me towards the right place to leave the suggestion. Even though I'm very new here, the 7cups community has already helped me so much in stressful times. Small pick-me-ups can make big differences in a person's mood and confidence, which is why I thought this idea could be helpful for the community.
