     @smallcircles @aral
     I'm ambivalent about the notion, but one COULD write "boost bots" with similar algorithmic promotion that one could follow, if one wanted.

     But we have filters, following people who boost, and even hashtags to provide that now. Curation DOES exist here.

     I'm not at all convinced that an AI could do better.

     @lxo @TerryHancock not me! It's a.gup.pe

     Here's how it works: on your instance search for any topic you want, like @test . a.gup.pe will create that group when you search for it (!!!).

     Then you follow it, and any time you post to it, it will boost your toot to all its followers.
