It seems silly but mastodon’s retreat from the language of “toots” and now even “boosts” ( they’re “reblogs” in the official app now ) is exactly the same dumb-as-rocks discarding of a recognizable brand that Xitter is doing
@glyph I am new to Mastodon so never heard of toots before. It's not nearly as recognizable as tweets. I like the term boost, not so sure about toots, it does sound kind of silly.
