  • On Kbin, in addition to up and downvotes, there is the Boost option, as seen in the picture.

    If you are looking at these comment threads on Kbin/Mbin, when a comment/post is ‘boosted,’ it is automatically moved up higher in the thread, similarly to if it had been upvoted a lot.

    Lemmy does not have Boosts, and so neither do any of the Lemmy clients on desktop/mobile.

    Lastly, on Kbin you can look at the ‘Activity’ on a post which lets you see who upvoted, who downvoted, and who Boosted, which is what is shown in the picture.

    I’m calling this guy out for being insecure and Boosting his own opinion to the top for visibility, despite the fact that he’s just parroting an already popular opinion in this thread.

    Edit: also lol, he unboosted his post at the time of me writing this comment. But the picture captures the original tomfoolery. Also I checked his profile and that guy regularly Boosts his own comments, but I bet he removed a bunch of those by now too.
