Kbinauts have an alternative to the Upvote button. It’s called ‘Boost’. It makes the comment show up higher in the thread. It’s like a mega upvote which can get relevant info up faster.
Does it translate to lemmy, or is it a completely seperate data ignored by lemmy? E.g. does boosting result in a regular upvote on lemmy or is it ignored? If it’s ignored, is it possible to boost and additionally upvote a comment on kbin?
Would there be a disadvantage to automatically upvote a comment if it is boosted, for better compatibility with lemmy?
Just seems like begging for adulation to me. "Oh look at me, I uphooted your post! Love me!"It’s like a person who gives $5 to a homeless, and then tells everybody they know about it, expecting kudos.
The tests can show negative no matter what your infection status. Some people don’t shed enough of the virus in their sinuses to detect.
My wife is one of them. We had covid at the same time, same symptoms, everything. I tested positive while she never did.
That’s important to know, so I boosted you. Thanks.
You did what?

Unsure, you’d have to look for FAQ information.
Why are you narrating your actions?
He typed, shittily
In hope others will, to give comment more visibility. Why did you feel the need to ask?

That’s…cynical. I’ve been there. I hope you heal.
Thanks. I hope you get over your attention whoring.
