Ernest just posted some comments clarifying recent changes to Votes, Boosts, Favorites, and Reputation Points:
- Upvotes & Downvotes function akin to Reddit
- Boosts count as two Upvotes (link)
- Favorites are added to https://kbin.social/fav if you Upvote (link)
- Reputation Points have been updated
In addition to that, Ernest stated that “there is no connection between reputation points and sorting algorithms. It’s just info in the profile” (link)
how can I downboost
Hit the boost button twice. The second tap will reduce boosts.
😂
I think just downvote? It seems to register as a “reduce” which I think is the opposite effect of boost?
Allow me to coin the term:
