I've noticed the local mastodon folk will boost things they like where as us former bsky folk will fave things we like and boost it only occasionally when it's more significant.

And, obviously, our culture is superior 😤

@zeph absolutely. I will continue to favorite as I wish and boost as I wish! 
@Momercury the age of the shitposter is now!
@zeph really though, I favorite things quite liberally, whether it’s an acknowledgment, support, or giggle. And I boost stuff that makes me laugh or is interesting.
@Momercury yeah same very low bar for pushing the shiny buttons. They dopamine me just knowing they'll dopamine someone else.

@zeph 100%

If I didn’t care about other people’s reactions, I wouldn’t post on social media 🤣

@zeph

we don't have that many people here so boosts matter more to make this place feel alive. favorites are more about acknowledgement and saying I appreciate you.

@wjmaggos that makes a lot of sense and I hope we can #fuckaas those numbers up
@zeph @wjmaggos it's actually more than that. Boosts help posts propagate over the network to additional instances here on the fediverse so they're even more impactful than on other systems while likes have a very limited effect when people mostly aren't looking at algorithmic feeds.
@ikuturso @wjmaggos Oh i seeeeeee I shall do both aggressively then because i love to show support

@zeph @ikuturso @wjmaggos
