Repeating (repeat) / boosting posts

By repeating posts, the post is distributed to your own connections. Comments end up in the original post (unlike shared posts).

If the post has not yet been repeated (no number next to the symbol), a simple click will lead to a repeat.

If the post has already been repeated at least once (number next to the symbol), clicking on it opens a menu that shows who has already repeated the post. Click on ‘+ Add yours’ to repeat the post yourself.

This behaviour corresponds to ‘boosting’, as we know it from Mastodon or the Forkeys, for example.
