Just to clarify: when I boost a post, it doesn’t necessarily mean I agree with it.
Often, I do it just to give visibility (and, consequently, to see the comments) on the topic being discussed - especially if it’s a post from a BSD Cafe user.

@[email protected] Uh oh. What did you boost and what happened? (You don't have to answer that unless you want to). My sentiments on what to give visibility to, and how, are complicated and not very well formed, so I won't try to comment on that part.

@[email protected] it's happened a couple of times, in the last days. My boosts mean "hey, look here" but people, sometimes, think they're some sorts of endorsements.
So I preferred to point it out - just to be sure of not being misunderstood 🙂
