Anyone else notice some accounts get an automatic phantom boost whenever they post?
I call them boost goblins.
I know specific hashtags are monitored and auto-boosted into private channels, like posts with #Threads and #fediverse in them (notice this post will likely have one of those boosts).
That's weird too.
But there seems to be boost goblins assigned to specific accounts, unbeknownst to the user. Are we monitoring sentiment?
*Jerry Seinfeld voice* What's the deal with boost goblins?
