I've been curious about the difference between favorite and boost. Is it that people can see my boosts, but my favorites are more for me (like a bookmark)?

Favourites tell the person who made the post that you liked it.
Boosts share the post with your followers. When you boost a post, it appears in the timelines of your followers.
You will see posts in your own timeline that have been boosted by the people you follow (though you can switch this off if you want to).
