I heard boost is +1 reputation and down vote is -1. Kinda wack if you ask me.
As far as I know that‘s because earlier in development the boost actually was the upvote, but now it‘s as you‘d expect it coming from Reddit
But I think the reputation system just hasn‘t been adapted to this yet
I‘ve just heard that from someone else around here, so take it with a grain of salt
The boost also apparently sends the post out to your subscribers, whereas the upvote does not.
