Would you help a poor single-user Friendica server admin out and boost this post?

Boosting will increase the number of servers my server federates with.

Thanks!

EDIT: that is probably not exactly how it works, but it kinda depends on which of the myriad of ActivityPub servers is seeing the boost, and I haven't checked all of them on how they decide what to pull in. For sure, having someone follow an account on the friendica server will have that friendica server push updates to the server of the follower, but other than that? Who knows :)

Thanks for the overwhelming amount of boosts anyway, and thanks to those following :)

The fediverse still baffles me.
I went to your site. It says you've made one post, but I read three.

@Rozzychan I think I made many more than three :)

When you say 'your site', what url would that be?

I clicked on your link at @gmc
But my instance is very protective, and lots of sites are blocked. I can also find you on friendica through a browser, but I only see followers, not post counts. https://friends.chasmcity.net/profile/gmc/profile

It's the weird way posts slowly populate through the network. Different people see different post counts depending on their hosts connections and bounces.

I enjoy being sheltered here, but post miscounts are annoying.
