On #mastodon and #fediverse, a boost = "I love this and would like my circle to see it as well" and a favourite = "I love it and would like to file it away for my personal future reference". This is different from the birdsite where your circle has visibility on your likes.
Boost away folks. Make this platform come alive and hum with energy.

Part of my logic goes to a recent discussion we are having, now moved to QOTO's Discourse Forums site. https://discourse.qoto.org/t/nov-2019-site-issues-discussions-non-english-and-foreign-script-posts/102
QOTO is primarily English language, and posts in foreign languages strain the moderation team, who might not speak them.
I fully understand the Fun of practicing our native languages, or practicing a new one you are just learning, but an instance located in a country where the language is currently spoken will have a lot more content, and friendly users to chat to.
Like it shows, on this snapshot -- a Brazilian user defining Fediverse:
"It's a Twitter without Nazis, and apparently I would have a beer with everyone." 😉 🍻
Found a site that could help people speaking different languages (Portuguese, Spanish, French, etc) locate an instance that has users and posts in their language.
Could be handy!

There are Brazilian and Portuguese speaking system admins posting helpful tips in portuguese - a nice resource. See #mastodicas
Re: Repeated posts
Am I missing something, because it looks to me like these two are identical. If you decide to edit a new post, removing and editing, then re-tooting it is the proper way to go.
It's confusing when we have duplicated threads, @chikara
repeated posts:
