Has anyone figured out how ($)boosts work? It seems to me most don't understand that sats don't magically appear. The reward must come from the poster after the goal has been met. So it's kind of a trust thing.
Since a feed of even the best people gets a bit noisy, I suspect boosts can help if done correctly. Maybe adding a blurb with every boost should be common as a point of education. Something like:
How boosts work: The poster includes ($)boost in their post along with a promise of the boost amount for some goal. That amount can be total or per boost. Then when the goal is met, the poster promises to send sats to the boost note which was created.
