Oddbean new post about login | logout I think that a repost without a comment often is only low effort content, not different from a like. It weights on reputation only for high profile accounts. Zaps and comments are the real PoW, so have value.
I've unfollowed people who repost too much, it's like they add their timeline to mine. Spam. People who put in valuable posts, but then comes a wave of other stuff. It gets annoying quickly, no matter how good the stuff is.🧐 Mention is way more interesting, the reposter has to put in more effort than just a click.
