Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what's the difference between boosting and hitting the upvote/downvote looking buttons?

[–] AnonTwo@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

The upvote doesn't represent an upvote on Kbin, so if you get a normal flow of upvotes/downvotes and no boosts, you'll have a negative reputation.

reputation doesn't actually do anything, of course, but it is there.

It only doesn't count as an upvote as far as reputation is concerned, upvotes are still upvotes in determining post ranking.

Not on kbin they aren’t. The only thing that drives the ranking currently is boost. I think they are working on fixing that though.
