I see a lot of people who are eager to do the Follow to Follow on FB and get depressed when the metacompany restricts their account. Or when the engagement goes to red instead of green. I did the F to F once for an experiment but others just wanted to do it like every day. For me, there's more to life outside the internet.
As a travel blogger, before I joined Hive, I blog as a hobby but not as a popular travel influencer. I don't worry much about not having 5k followers or more. I had so many things going on in my personal life in the past few years so I can't fake having a glamorous life of a travel blogger.
On my blogs or FB page, I did share how I was able to travel on a budget. That was the reason I got some organic 2k followers. XD
