Ernest just posted some comments clarifying recent changes to Votes, Boosts, Favorites, and Reputation Points:
- Upvotes & Downvotes function akin to Reddit
- Boosts count as two Upvotes (link)
- Favorites are added to https://kbin.social/fav if you Upvote (link)
- Reputation Points have been updated
In addition to that, Ernest stated that “there is no connection between reputation points and sorting algorithms. It’s just info in the profile” (link)
how can I downboost
Hit the boost button twice. The second tap will reduce boosts.
technically the truth. The best kind of truth.
😂
I think just downvote? It seems to register as a “reduce” which I think is the opposite effect of boost?
Allow me to coin the term:

You have to fill out form ID-10-T and then store some kinetic energy inside a box attached to a mechanical hand in an open palm position … the box will then be shipped to the person you are “downboosting” and when they open the box, the stored kinetic energy will activate the hand and slap them in the face … a small audio device will be installed with the package that will play the Windows logon sound bite and then announce ‘YOU’VE BEEN DOWNBOOSTED’.
