@NotTheOnlyGamer It's fine for it to do something different I guess but it sounds like the boost functionality is what people would expect for the up arrow. If the up arrow is just like a favorites then that functionality could be a text button as "save" or "favorite". Maybe an icon as a heart or star.

If the issue is trying to separate up votes from likes and down votes from dislikes the arrows might need to be abandoned all together. Or maybe some kind of quality reflecting term/icon used along side likes/dislikes.
