Note
One spelling does two jobs: it is the progressive verb (she was favoriting every reply) and the verbal noun for the act itself, as in flagging a post for later or as a quiet endorsement. The silent e of favorite drops before -ing, and the t is not doubled. Favoriting is the US standard spelling. Writers who follow British spelling use favouriting, built the same way on favourite.
