Logged in a few minutes ago and noticed that reputation in my account was much higher then before. Guessing it might be counted now.
I kinda hope @ernest resets all the rep to zero to undo the negative million reputation I’ve earned by telling tankies in lemmy to go fuck themselves.
🥳 nice one @ernest
What does this mean for boost now?
Hey, boost == 2*upvote. Simple as that ;)
Cool 👍 Also what happened to “favourites”, I can no longer see upvoted (saved) posts?
fav == upvote (/fav)
boost == boosts (/u/pizzadreams/boosts)
Does this count only for personal account reputation scores, or does this also count toward any sorting algos on the platform?
No, there is no connection between reputation points and sorting algorithms. It’s just info in the profile.
I was kinda hoping the whole “Reputation” thing could just be deleted so we don’t get the karmawhoring problem that plagued Reddit, but now, I guess I can actually upvote someone more than once, so that’s a thing!
@0xtero Well, boosting is more like retweeting to your microblog for your followers.
