Yep, finally using this site lol. Admins have gone full dictator over there.
So we get a boost and upvote here eh? Neat
Upvote = Like
Boost = Retweet
Which I still find weird because I never followed anyone on my anti-social media anyway.
My understanding is that upvotes don't do anything themselves, boost functions like a reddit upvote in that it will bring a comment or article to the top of the queue. I use it as a 'people should see this' button.
You can think of kbin as a hybrid of Lemmy and Mastodon (and it federates with both through ActivityPub). It has interfaces both for communities (magazines) and for uncategorized posts/status updates/tweets (microblogs).
