I keep seeing lots of long-time #fediverse users saying 'don't favourite posts it does nothing' but actually when you favourite my posts it makes me smile and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

@lmorchard @djdellamorte I think they're generally responding to people who have internalised the behaviour of liking every post by friends in order to boost them in the algorithm.
@swift @lmorchard @djdellamorte I would simply like all my friends' posts because they post good and that's why they're my friends
