RE: On Followers and Stereotypes
I probably don’t follow enough people, at least officially. In part because I don’t want my feed to get so bloated that I miss stuff. But I’ll often go visit blogs of people I don’t follow in the sense of having clicked the follow button. So for instance, I don’t actually follow @slobberchops even though I read and vote on his musings fairly often but I do follow some accounts like @donallogue who haven’t posted for a long time, in large part so that my feed doesn’t become so bloated that I miss out on a time when they do post.
Granted, not entirely a rational way to do things. Yeah, I should probably use one of the notification apps for something like that.
It is true, especially with the serial resteemers, I have dumped followers for this reason in the past.
In today's world of STEEM, I'm finding sometimes I don't have enough content to look at sometimes. My follower base has expanded a little recently for this reason.
