Currently, the Combined timeline is sorted by
createdAt. This is a problem when boosted content is included, as it might be quite old and so the user will not see newly boosted content without scrolling far down regularly.This solution is not perfect, as only the global most recent boost time is recorded, which means that content can move on top even if it was not boosted by any of the users followees.
I hope I didn't miss locations in the code where boost are created.
