      Kbinauts have an alternative to the Upvote button. It’s called ‘Boost’. It makes the comment show up higher in the thread. It’s like a mega upvote which can get relevant info up faster.

        Does it translate to lemmy, or is it a completely seperate data ignored by lemmy? E.g. does boosting result in a regular upvote on lemmy or is it ignored? If it’s ignored, is it possible to boost and additionally upvote a comment on kbin?

        Would there be a disadvantage to automatically upvote a comment if it is boosted, for better compatibility with lemmy?
