It's a stable strategy so eventually you won't be able to avoid it.

Boost is precisely the same as variable payments for likes. Having miners do a pony show in the background doesn't really change that. The critical difference is you're paying miners for an unnecessary show instead of paying content creators. Thumbs down.

They are different but you just don't really listen when I try to explain the difference to you.
