I'm really interested to see how this plays out.

There's currently no way to modulate your volume in social media posts. So "here's a cute photo of my cat" ranks the same as "I really need some help on this". FaceBook amplifies signals that friends like, but this feature allows the poster to amplify as well.

But it uses money, and it's weird to mix money and friend relationships, so... I'm really interested to see how this plays out.
