That's weird. Even unregistered accounts can accept (i.e. give the green tick) to an answer. There is a time limit of 15 minutes, but after that you can accept another user's answer.

Well, I remember getting answered pretty damn fast, and quickly went to my question to see the answer. Maybe I was stuck on that timebox! You mean that we have to wait 15 minutes after the person posted the answer?

The inability to upvote was kinda sad, though.

It's 15 minutes after you ask. There is a big problem with voting "fraud", so making voting a privilege is part of slowing that down.

Yes, that is definitely a fair reason. I just didn't know what was happening (probably didn't read something that I should have 😅). I just managed to log in again on my Stack Overflow account (took longer that I expected 😅) and successfully marked that as the solution! Thanks! 😁
