I've seen one or two profiles with the phrase "Boosts are not endorsements" and I wanted to ask if we, as a community, can nip that in the bud?
This isn't the other place. There are no algos to game. There is no audience to reach. What we _do_ have is our curated content, our interests, and our community.
Boosting is ABSOLUTELY endorsing something. It's you, taking a post, and saying "this is good enough for #MastoDaoine to see".
Anything else is inciting controversy, leave that shit behind.

@coogie I think you might be missing the point.
What they mean is "Me sharing this means I think we should talk about it, but doesnt mean I agree or approve of what is being said"
No boosting is nnot endorsing something, nor is it saying something is "good enough" or "good" in general. It is simply saying "this is content I want you to see and hear your comments on"
@freemo but are you not saying it's good enough for your followers to see and consume? If you want to have a conversation on the subject matter, would it not make more sense to reply directly to the post in question with public visibility?
