Ernest just posted some comments clarifying recent changes to Votes, Boosts, Favorites, and Reputation Points:

Upvotes & Downvotes function akin to Reddit
Boosts count as two Upvotes (link)
Favorites are added to https://kbin.social/fav if you Upvote (link)
Reputation Points have been updated

In addition to that, Ernest stated that "there is no connection between reputation points and sorting algorithms. It's just info in the profile" (link)

Upvote = "I like this"
Boost = "I think other people will like this"
