I still have no idea what boosting a server does.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If a server gets enough boosts they can add largely useless extra stuff like more custom stickers and emojis. There's a few legit benefits like higher quality audio / video and being able to create a custom server invite link but it's mostly fluff.
