Alioth Fox (but you can call me Daddy~)<p>One important reminder, especially for all the <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/NewUsers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NewUsers</span></a> coming from the <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/twittermigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>twittermigration</span></a> - </p><p>PLEASE remember to BOOST posts that you like! Hitting the favourite button is a nice quiet way to show an artist that you like something, but that's literally <em>all it does</em>. (Edit: I've been informed that this isn't <em>entirely</em> true: apparently likes DO influence what gets promoted on the "Explore" tab, but not every instance has that, and a lot of people don't use it in any case.) On <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/Twitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Twitter</span></a>, faves get promoted by an algorithm; a fave is basically a "soft retweet."</p><p>On <a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mastodon</span></a>, that isn't the case. A favourite does literally nothing except give the artist a notification "[user] favourited your post." That's it. For interests you want to keep private or that aren't appropriate for the "brand" you're building on your account, that's fair! But otherwise, please BOOST instead of just favouriting!</p><p><a href="https://cubhub.social/tags/FediTips" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediTips</span></a></p>
