Observation: on any other social media platform, it's very unusual to see anyone giving more than, say, one share/RT/boost for every ten likes/faves they give.
On Fosstodon, I'm seeing more like 4 boosts for every five favorites.
IDK what conclusion one would draw, or even whether that's an all of Mastodon thing or just a Fosstodon thing specifically. But it fascinates me.
