I wanna hear what kind of boosters, brands, position and what applications do you use it for?

BLOWING UP INTO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING
Got no time for clean boost foolishness.

ATOMIC BOOST SHAKA LAKA

use my micro amp at the end of the chain, gets my highs and mids a little more pronounced. helps the fuzzies out.

Got a Sparkle Motion, I use it into a cranked amp to push it over the edge or into other dirt pedals to either brighten them up a bit and make things clearer or to boost bass to get seriously fuzzy.

Does anyone actually use a Blowing Up! for anything?

Dude, Blowing Up is the shit.
If you need quieter toans for some wuss songs, just Blowing Up another fuzz or something and use that as a volume control, still has the magic effect.

Hinteresting. is Ohnoho still around/doing things?

I'm hoarding CC/DCs like toilet paper before the y2k. Shit's magic.
I use it for extra volume with the clean channel, but I use dirty channel to add extra gain to fuzz; which works really well because its inherent treble boost keeps it from getting overly smooshy.

I used to use both a CC/DC and a Blowing Up!

CC/DC is without a doubt the most musical boost pedal I've ever used. Blowing Up is one of the greatest distortion pedals. Balls out.

The Hi Five I used to own was the perfect middleground.

This. And it's also decent as a normal booster on the low gain settings I think

This, Sparkle Motion can do pretty much any sort of boost incredibly well

I use a SHO boost to make my clean tone kick more balls. Gives the illusion of being heavy but still sounding clean. I don't know if that makes sense. I like using clean boosts so I can punch people in the face with loudness rather than distortion. And when its time to have some fun, I can turn on my TAFM with a good blend and just be even heavier and louder. Its the best.

I also used to use more sparkly clean boosts like The Devi punch love/25 into fuzzes that don't let much clear high end through, like the Soda Meiser. A sparkly boost turns the SM into a more chord friendly fuzz that can do octavia stuff rather than its normal scrambled octavia muff sound.

I also have to support the CC/DC, used that guy way back when I didn't have an English Muff'n. Loved that guy.

Nano LPB-1! It´s cool and cheap, does the trick. Cuts some bass and adds some hiss but fuck it.
Used it to boost the Fuzz War i had before for some awesome sounds, crushing octave-ish ripping your face off tonez!
I had a SHO clone, i didnt like it. Too clean.

i heart my Hi Five. i use it at the front of the chain to balance the input level of my different guitars, and occasionally to add a little grit.

if i had unlimited pedalboard space and budget, i'd get a Fairfield Barbershop. they're totally underrated...i got to try one as part of the tourbox and it's a beautiful, clear, responsive boost at low gain settings. if the people at TGP ever got hip, Guillaume would be busy for the rest of his life.

I've got a Blowing Up and I love the thing. Had Lawrence add in a momentary switch so I can do sudden bursts of shit. Also great for pushing weird sustain when you're ringing out.

Planning on picking up a Mini soon...hopefully...finances permitting. God I need a better job.
