I found this site where you rank famous people. It would be funny to boost socialist figures

Update: Stalin rose 84 places to 3358. Not that much but enough to show as 'trending'

Based ruthless enforcement of communism, take that ultras.

Lenin page is also not awful for a lib site.

Also guess who's #1 in World's Leaders? Putin

So I'm unsure yet but, it looks like you can make a POST request to an API endpoint to boost and it'll just, accept it? No authentication? I'm still pokeing around.

I agree, it would be funny. I wonder if the website calculates "boosts" based solely on cookies or if it requires voting from different IP addresses to actually count them.

You only have to reload the page to boost again.
