It’s funny how people who boosted early did it to troll me and the people replying after it’s been boosted a million times somehow think I was trying to get my post boosted 😂

But no, I was actually calling out how boost culture makes it so that I have to scroll through tons of context-less posts and try to make sense of them. It’s very tiring for someone who really just wants to catch up with friends.

@shantini I know there’s a Mastodon specific reason why people use it so much, but I hate it. I just want to ‘Like’ posts I like, not endorse and promote them with a boost

@danimal @shantini isn’t that exactly what favoriting them does?

@chucker @shantini yes and I use favoriting/liking 95% of the time. Most others seem to prefer boosting, which to me is wrong. People boost really bland things all the time
