Yah but thatโ€™s not what everyone using the term means, they literally mean renote because thatโ€™s what their client calls renoting, like how Damus uses the term repost. Theyโ€™re โ€œboostingโ€ the post for more engagement. Boost- help, encourage, lift from below, amplify. Broadcasting doesnโ€™t really do any of those things.

how could you honestly say what everyone means when using the term with absolute certainty my fren have you surveyed every single nostrich that uses this term ? also Iโ€™d disagree โ€œbroadcastingโ€ definitely amplifies a note, is it not now in more relays than it was when posted by the author ? n how does that not mean that it reaches a wider audience that it wouldnโ€™t have otherwise ? (npubs who werenโ€™t connected to the authors relays)
