Whats that you say, favoriting a post is functionally useless because there's no algorithm on Mastodon?

Tell that to my instant gratification addicted lizard brain that's getting hit with a tidal wave of dopamine every time my phone vibrates.

@lowqualityfacts Favoriting a post means basically nothing except to the original poster.

So favoriting a post is telling the original poster they matter.

Favorite a post to brighten somebody's day.
