What is the difference between "public boost" and "unlisted boost"? Unlisted posts show up in your followers home timeline but not in public timelines. But boosts never show up in public timelines soooo what is the difference?

Boosts are visible in the public profile timetime

@ConnyDuck @HugeGameArtGD it is possible for boosts to be considered their own posts, this used to be the case a long time ago in mastodon even. boosts had their own permalinks and could have their own replies. currently there’s some logic to make replies and boosts “pass through” to the original status, so there is no difference as such
