@atomicpoet great comment.
I'm new here and since arriving often saw folks posting that likes are irrelevant and it's all about the boost. I think your take on it is very important.
I don't always want to boost a comment nor reply to it, but actually do like it so I liberally tap the "like" icon.

@Brightdave @atomicpoet I think it’s even more important for people with a lower follower count. A boost or reply might not always make sense but a like will still show that someone, well, liked their post. It’s not for the algorithm it’s for the user.
