@domi "this is interesting and my followers might find it interesting, even if I do not agree with what it says"But I've found (in Twitter times already) that this rarely works well without adding context

@domi@donotsta.re What people usually mean by this is that a single boost of a single post does not mean the agree with everything this person has ever said ever.Because that is apparently something that needs to be said nowadays.

@domi I never did understand that idea. Or the "favorite == read receipt" thing I see with some people.

@domi I've seen some people use boosts as a way to say "this is a post I find stupid please laugh at the author"

@wolf480pl@mstdn.io @domi@donotsta.re "i want to put stupidity in front of the eyes of my followers to perpetuate a culture of mocking rather than understanding" is unfortunately a pretty big L in my book

@michcia @domi @asie I guess what I meant isThis is a part of a bigger feedback loop. Getting rid of "boost is not an endorsement" could be a step in the right direction, but it's just the tip of the iceberg.And I know enough to know that I don't know enough about the whole iceberg.
