I think we are talking about different things?
My post was about the timeline people see when they log on, the "Home Timeline". On most social networks people may get nervous about liking the wrong thing in case it messes up their own timeline. On here people don't need to worry about this because likes and shares don't affect their own timeline 🙂
The explore tab you linked to is a list of the most boosted recent posts, it's not anyone's personal timeline.

@FediTips@social.growyourown.services right, what you see isn't customised to you; you're referring to "The Algorithm". That's fine.
I'm not clear on how liking or boosting affects what everyone sees on the Explore page, though.
