I see a very small minority of people using Kbin, but I don’t understand why.

Is this just a coincidence and did some people choose Kbin over Lemmy or is there a good reason to use Kbin?

    I was confused what boosting is. Docs said it’s basically a repost/share.

    So I think super like is misleading. Even if your super liking is the reason you share it, they’re two different things.

    (I may not necessarily want to share/share-promote hat I super-like. What I share is curation too.)

      It’s literally not. Over here, on top of the “repost to your profile under your boosts section” functionality it’s intended to have, it also counts as 2x rep for the poster. It really, truly is also a “super-like.”

          The presence or absence of that single word doesn’t change the fact that nothing OP said was wrong eh ;P

            Nobody claimed what they said was wrong. The thesis is that it may be misleading (through omission of the second half of what it does).

              See, the problem here is that you’re treating an off-the-cuff casual explanation as a “thesis.” Please don’t bring this absurd habit over here, where people have to feel compelled to cover absolutely every interpretation and hedge every outlier for fear of getting nitpicked to hell and back. Literally no one enjoyed that environment.

                I think it’s reasonable to argue, “a super like that also shares the post is functionally different from just a super like.” It doesn’t seem nit-picky when discussing the reasons why someone might choose one service over another to want to be precise about the mechanics of one of those services, no?

                I pointed out it does more. You replied claiming “It’s literally not.” which is simply factually wrong.

                Are you saying nobody should point that out? On this discussion platform?

                You could have just left it there. If you have that much of a problem with the word thesis maybe you’re the one who shouldn’t take things so literally. If you have a problem with how this went, maybe you should not make false statements or let it go earlier.

                I don’t think there’s a need to cover everything at all.
