While trying to figure out /kbin I accidentally boosted an article I (very much) did not want to. Is it possible to remove these from my profile?
i think clicking the boost button again unboosts the article
It does, but now I am more confused. It appears I never boosted the article until testing just now. It is just stuck in my profiles boosted section for some reason.
I boosted and unboosted your article real quick, now it’s also stuck on my boosted page lmao
There’s not much we can do from the user side, this is someting for @ernest to figure out
I don’t even know what “boosting” is, I take it this is from some flavor of social media that I’m not familiar with. Some kind of public “saved article” list?
What boosting means depends on which Fediverse platform you’re on. If you’re following Kbin content from Mastodon/Calckey/Pleroma, which are conceptually similar to Twitter, boosting appears in your feed in the way that a twitter retweet does.
If you’re following Kbin content directly on Kbin, then a boosted article will appear in your profile. I don’t know what Lemmy or other Fediverse applications do with them.
