I mean that’s a cool feature Reddit didn’t have. There are so many tech savvy people here yet I feel the boost button is mostly ignored even though it can be so much more powerful in how it changes the exposure of a link/comment.
If I can’t see the actual amount of boosts due to some fuckery with being on kbin instead Lemmy or whatever lmk.

Edit because I immediately got plenty of confused comments. I enter the lemmyverse through kbin and this federation offers to not just upvote but boost a comment as well. For me this means I can give a comment more exposure.
But I’m really not good with computers plz to halp. There’s a very good chance that I entirely misunderstood what I’m clicking on all the time.

Edit 2: I just wanted to let everyone know that this post was boosted eight times 48 minutes after posting which is a lot. Kbin represent!

    Since twitter doesn’t exist, they should just rename boost to retweet.

    One of the kbin mobile apps “Artemis” has the option to link the upvote to boost.
