@breadandcircuses Thanks! So a “boost” is what mastodon identifies as being “reblogged”? (In my post I listed “reboot” when I meant “reblog”)

Ps—I agree it’s gratifying to know a stranger thinks something you toot is worth sharing with others—makes one feel like a savant. I will admit if I miss just one tiny feature of #birdsite its the ability to “quote tweet” where I can add a profundity of my own. 😹

May I know what does “boost” mean/entail on mastodon—so I may add it to my mastodon vocabulary list? Is it a good or bad thing?

So far I’ve learned “fediverse,” “instance,” “toot,” “reboot,” and “favorite.” Are there any other terms I should learn about?

You can also include an extract from the original post. The whole thing is shared by default.

One of my key use cases that doesn't seem to be supported by #MastodonVocabulary is boosting a post *with added commentary*. Like, where's my value add? I want to provide more context or my own thoughts as I send it along... The work around is boosting and then finding the boosted post and commenting but I also have a hard time finding it? #MaybeItsJustMe #mastodonfeatures

Hopefully this makes sense: Can someone better explain the end end portion of the usernames? I didn’t see an option to pick (or maybe I just didn’t know what I was looking at) when I signed up. Whatever follows the “@ [this part]” - I’m not too sure how I got mine but I’m seeing so many different ones! #helpimanewbie #help #MastodonVocabulary (?)
