Are posts like this used to "boost" twitter accounts? seems like it is.

As other commenters pointed out, I use Twitter to share my thoughts like how others publish on their blogs.

People can follow me if they'd like, but I wouldn't know anyway because I've made tools specifically to hide followers/likes/vanity metrics on social media (https://hidelikes.com/).

Yeah the author created this post pointing to his own tweet saying thank you in relation to a different post already on HN.

Doesn’t seem like the twitter OP is selling or promoting anything? And even if he did, who cares.

How is that different than someone "boosting" their own blog posts? Twitter seems like this person's medium of delivery for their content.
