Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the point of boosting AND favoriting the same post on #Mastodon ?
The way I understand it, a boost is "I likr this and want my followers to see it", and a favorite is "I like this, but my followers probably aten't interested". Which makes doing both seem pointless to me, but I often see the same person doing both in my notifications, so what am I missing?
