it's amazing how many favorite a post, but don't repeat. there's no algorithm, or better, you are the algorithm. favorite tells the author, "great!" but doesn't help your followers timelines, at all. i think this is funny, not haha. how passive we have become.
@LouisIngenthron noone said anything about caring about going viral. if you look at my topics and the types of post i make, just taking, say 10 seconds, you would not say that about me. the quality of our feeds depend on everyone sharing interesting thoughts and finds.
@imklg If you don't care about going viral, then why would it upset you when people favorite your posts without boosting?
@LouisIngenthron you're trolling now. noone is upset. ActivityPub works best with active users, sharing and posting. less passivity, more sharing. my point was about the passivity. there's central authority amplifying provokative posts. trollish posts that you have posted, for instance.
@imklg Maybe people don't want to boost your posts because you call them "trolls" when they engage with you. 🤷♂️
@LouisIngenthron ok, then don't troll people with ad hominum attacks. and cite 'people' as a source that couldn't possibly know my favorite to boost ratio. also, you assume that my posts are not boosted. i never said that. so more trollish behavior, again. <meh> time to move on.
