Ah, they'd changed it? That explains my confusion - I already had a Mastodon account so I was familiar with the boost concept, apart from how it worked in a threaded setup.
I agree, and I still don't even know if they mean magazine as in the publication or as in the thing that holds ammunition - both make about the same amount of sense to me.
I find kbin more confusing overall, e.g. how you have both boost and voting available, but then for short posts boost is more obviously placed (since the up/downvote buttons are way over on the right).
That all depends on what you're interested in. I'm assuming you've come from reddit, so you could try sub.rehab to find new homes for your subs, although tbh I don't know if it's up to date or not - there have been some instances die so the communities had to move.
YA books are definitely a good call for when I'm short on time. Normally I only read one fiction and one non-fiction - I don't understand those people who have dozens of books on the go!

Anyway, yeah - confusing!
