#experiment tagging @mozilla @mozilla to see if this post shows up on #lemmy .

A place to discuss the news and latest developments on the open-source browser Firefox
@mozilla @firefox
Answer found: it is a reply to the original post!
Further, an upvote on #lemmy is a boost on #mastodon.
What's weird is that the boost seems to come from the community it was posted to, not the Lemmy user that upvoted it.
I wonder what happens when there are multiple upvotes ... Multiple boosts by the and community (e.g. @firefox)?
@mozilla @firefox I see multiple upvotes, but only one boost.
Further, the boost only seems to apply to the top post, not to the replies.
#curiosity solved by #experimentation . Feel free to add more #observations .

Well that's odd, what if it's a different user that's commenting? Maybe all the boosts went to the top post because it was all by the same user
@otter @firefox
I noticed that the boost seems independent of upvote, though I don't have enough experimental data (aka spam) to verify my hypothesis.
