And maybe if enough people complain NVIDIA will start behaving less like a bag of dicks?

Wishful thinking, I know, but one can hope.

As far as kbin is concerned, it will appear under the "boosted" category. Some platforms handle this differently. To take a random user as an example, this fosstodon user has a bunch of posts which will show up separately from their boosts when viewed from kbin. But looking at their profile from Fosstodon itself, you will see posts and boosts mixed together as is the norm on Mastodon.

On that note, upvotes and downvotes upvote matter even less here ("here" meaning kbin) as the factor dictating comment order in the "hot" ranking is boosting (think retweet equivalent), not the vote count.

Not sure how that goes on Lemmy though.

This seems to be a no strings attached good deal on xQc's side. However...

As a start-up, Kick is prepared to operate at a loss

Aaand the platform is doomed. Focusing on growth over viability is whats makes you a prime enshitification target.
