Something unclear from the article

>You can also Favourite a Toot. Which basically means that you support or agree with a Toot.

Are favourites toots private? Can someone else view them? Are they automatically shown up in timelines (as liked tweets do).

Also, does favourite really imply agreement? To me atleast, I favourited tweets that I didn’t agree with just because they pointed to a well constructed argument, or for future reference.

Since twitter changed terminology to like I’ve stopped doing that.
