@billybitts@masto.ai "Boost" is the same as "retweet", and that's way more important here than on Twitter.
"Favorite" is the same as "like", and doesn't do very much here except signal approval (since there's no algorithm tracking likes, and boosting highly-liked posts into people's timelines).
The main takeaway: boosting means more here, do that more.

@chrisabides@infosec.exchange But if I boost, does it serve any purpose to favorite as well. I have no problem doing so. Just wondered if there was a good reason I shouldn’t.
