Make "bump" great again
Gigi's avatar Gigi
post / boost / zap / repost You post a note. You boost it if it's good. You zap it if it deserves a zap. "Repost" will always be creating a new post with old content to me. That's my take on terminology. Discuss.

With a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given Then I bumped again, then I bumped again. -Third Eye Blind

Isn't bump a forum thing because a new reply will 'bump' a thread back to the top of the list of posts in the forum? Which is why people would get upset if you would bump what had been a dead thread, the necrobump.
Yes ๐Ÿ˜‚ Very much like boosting or replying to an old thread here will make it show up again in people's feeds, where their feed is otherwise chronological.
Yeah Iโ€™d love for clients to deal with the non-quote repost differently, just bump it to the top and remove older โ€œcopyโ€
