Sojourner question
In my "Now" stats, it says:
Current Sojourner Streak: 60 days
...but the medal's still silver. Does it just take it a while to figure out I have it, or is something weird going on here?

...ok, I drone hacked something, and then the medal fired... which is odd, because at 30 days I had the medal on login, it didn't take a hack to confirm it. Maybe the server only polls every for badges every 10 minutes or something.
The server sync doesn't always occur for stats.
Generally find doing a portal recharge, syncs it
Ah ok, so I did have it, I just had to do -something- to force it to realize it. Thanks.
So I assume Drone Hacking counts? Thought you had to hack a portal in person for it to count towards that medal.
Yes, drone hacks count for Sojourner but not for Epoch.
It is a temporary change that applies since March 2020

The post you reference was made before drones were introduced to the game. The temporary change Niantic made to Sojourner was to allow recharge to count instead of a hack - but that was reversed since we now have the drone. Drone hacks have ALWAYS (since the introduction of drones last year) counted towards Sojourner. Given the number of agents who have battled to keep Sojourner going due to trips to remote areas, extreme weather, illness I think Niantic would be unlikely to remove it.
thanks and apologies
