I'm sort of ok with "boost" being highlighting and elevating a specific moment in podcast timeline with couple sats. This probably comes from computer racing games having some form of "power boost"... The usage of "boost" here on SN is ok I guess, it's somewhat similar to the podcast case.
I don't like boost used for paying - e.g. when clicking on lightning icon here, I'd never call that "boost".

Does it actually elevate that moment in the podcast though? Afaik users don't see the timeline of "boosts" unless I'm not paying close enough attention.

podcasters do see the moment a boost is made on fountain, other listeners cannot right now.

In Fountain there's afaik a way to see boostagrams as they show up... I was also imagining that this would eventually end up looking like the soundcloud timeline when playing a song.
