The repost transforms every user into a curator, creating distributed editorial power where relevance is determined by collective human intelligence rather than corporate algorithms.

When you repost, you stake your reputation on what deserves attention, making it both social proof and intellectual endorsement. In decentralized networks, ideas spread not because they game an algorithm, but because they resonate with real people.

We are indeed the algorithm, and our collective reposts weave the very fabric of what information survives, thrives, or dies in the digital commons.

Yes. To be done tastefully.

I stop following ones who only repost, because I don't need the same posts 3 times. But occasional reposts when someone has their own, often show me a new person to follow.
