    Boosting liberally on Mastodon is encouraged bc that’s the only way posts get exposure without an algorithm. I boost every post I see as long as it isn’t offensive or low quality.

      I’m a little more selective than that, personally. I also engage in conversation more liberally while encouraging people to follow hashtags rather than individuals, which helps discovery.
