I think the colloquial word is "boop"

Honestly, 'boop' sounds lame. It's a bit 'meme-y'.

I agree.

What about Circle Dotting or just Dotting?

"Circle dotting" reminds me of the rhyme from elementary school (to be spoken while drawing on someone's arm): "Circle, circle, dot, dot; now I've got my cootie shot!"

Maybe if you fill up someone's hubwheel you're giving them cooties? :|

you think? i mean it's not official by any means. it's just something i saw and liked and it makes talking about hubski irl easier (to the like...1 person i talk to it about irl)

I'm 1000% on board for calling it booping a post.

i love it. i don't remember who came up with it, but that sure is what it feels like. it's gentle and less competitive than an upvote.

boop!
