more precisely it lets you add text that only shows up for people looking specifically at your reblog/boost/whateverthefuck the generic term is, unlike a reply which everyone afterwards can see.

So it's like showing your friend something on the phone and making a snarky remark about it, they hear your remark but no one else does.
