So do I. If they look interesting and have some decent content, I’ll follow them. And I try not to follow back people who are obviously just following everyone they see out there in hopes that they get lots of people to follow them. A good hint is when they have fewer than 500 followers and are following multiple thousands and accumulating them just as fast as they can. You are just a number to such people.
And just musing aloud, I wonder why they turned my GIF monkey pox animation into a movie on TS? That’s weird. I’ve checked out some other animations that seemed to obviously be GIFs, and they were turned into movies as well. Weird.
