I have a #question about how #Mastodon works. If I #boost something (my own #toot or someone else's) in the morning, then come back in the afternoon and UNboost it, wait a while, then boost it again, does that toot show up in everyone's Home feeds again? Or do toots only get posted once, regardless, making unboosting-then-reboosting a waste of time? Does anyone know how the #DevsOfMastodon make this work? Any #MastoTips, #FediTips, or #boosts will be appreciated!

@IAmDannyBoling I've been wondering this, too - about whether reboosting works. It sounds like that first reply didn't answer this aspect of your question so I hope you find the info you are looking for

I'm still unclear on it lol. But I think the consensus, at least, is that reboosting does work.
Hey, @FediTips, if you can, would you please look at the top of this post and respond if you know the answer?

Yes, reboosting later will make the toot reappear in your followers' timelines.
Reboosting definitely works, lots of people use it to reach other time zones by leaving 6-12 hours between reboosting.
