Does a bold keyword also affect seo? Like, if we bold our primary keyword in a content, will it set a more priority in the eyes of Google crawler?

Nope it doesn't. include primary keywords in H1 or H2 or Interlink it in the text.

Actually, I'd argue that it does affect SEO, as an aspect of a better UI/UX.
The reason being is that by bolding the most important parts of your articles, you're helping users find the answers they were looking for.
By doing that, you'll avoid losing them to a competitor if the answer wasn't visible enough.

well no.
for user experience, sure it helps(and may provide returning customers depending on the niche), but for SEO purposes it means nothing.
google crawler wont prioritize ease of access over keyword ranking

I don't think you got what I meant, or I didn't explain myself properly.
It doesn't directly affect your position (obviously), but by easing the search of the user to satisfy their search intent, you prevent them from keep looking for the answers in other SERP results, which is a great signal for Google.

No, for any search engine they are same just like any text on the page. But kw in h1/h2 have weight

Nope, font weight doesn't have any impact on SEO ranking, as far as I know.

The impact of bolding keywords in SEO is relative and closely tied to the overall content on the webpage. In essence, the results of formatting tweaks typically align with the algorithm's initial understanding of the page. Simply put, bolding doesn't lead to significant rank changes.

Yes, it is a UX issue. Also, I have seen it a lot on high ranking sites that I am sure that their ML model must have picked it as a classifier for rankings.

i think bold keyword does not affect seo, but maybe it can catch reader's attention

It is very old technique but these type of tricks are not very effective now.

Google doesn't care about your website so won't give a shi**t if you bold your text or not.
